5. I sat at a table between tables occupied by Warren Buffett and Bill Gates.
   
Servino Ristorante, Tiburon, California.

And I'm still poor.

But I am one good-looking mofo, and those dudes are plug-ugly.

I would think any place Warren Buffet or Bill Gates would eat would have background checks on all employees, including busboys.

My guess is Buffet and Gates were there the day before and he overheard the waitstaff talking about it. 

How much you want to bet his girlfriend paid the bill?

I Think that is the closest to the mark I can dig up ... Assuming that the source isn't compromised of course.

SERVINO'S IN THE NEWS
August 2005
Last week Angelo Servino was suprised by a visit to his Main Street Tiburon eatery by two titans of the business world. First, Warren Buffet, the "Oracle of Omaha," was staying in town with a friend who took him to dinner at Servino Ristorante Friday night where Buffet and fellow bridge player Angelo (A Life Master) schmoozed about the game.

Buffet liked the pepperoni pizza so much that he returned to have another on sunday, August 29th - and he brought Microsoft's Bill Gates along. They both raved about the pizza as they dined in the upstairs dining room. Although others were present, the two apparently went unrecognized, and both promised a return trip in the future.

Their website says they have a private, upstairs dining room and that is where Gates and Buffett were situated. But, I am sure the legend that is TiT made it past all the necessary checkpoints into their midst.

TiT isn't lying.

Nowhere in his post did he say he ate at the restaurant at the same time!!!!

So he probably did eat at the same restaurant, between tables occupied by Gates and Buffett, just a week or so before or after.

QED.  :tongue:
