For the record, I would never do this with a non degen crew. The degens I know are all good tippers and we are usually having a blast when we do this, and I'm sure the waiter/waitstaff can pick up on that vibe.
Only ever do this with known degen folk and never had a server be upset about it. It takes a moment to explain what's going on, but all the ones I've had enjoyed the sweat with us.
