Better Now: Post Malone Leaves $20,000 Tip During Houston Visit

The tip and, at right, Renee Brown and Post Malone

ON CHRISTMAS EVE, Post Malone and Shaboozey hung out at neighborhood-y bar The Railyard in the Galleria area before joining Beyonce for her Christmas Day halftime performance, which was livestreamed on Netflix.


Post Malone left a big surprise for Renee Brown in form of a $20,000 tip. "I try to go above and beyond to take care of all of our customers, and loved seeing them interact with Post Malone when he visited — he was so genuine and made everyone feel comfortable," says Brown. As a single mother, Brown works two jobs when she isn't homeschooling her daughter. "His generosity with this life-changing gift blew me away. This definitely wasn't the Christmas Eve I was expecting, but one I'm forever thankful to have had."

The Railyard is no strander to hosting celebs; it’s also been visited by David Spade and Keifer Sutherland.

"One of the most amazing things about this bar is that you never know who is going to walk through the door,” says Trey Melcher, owner of The Railyard. “In the past we've had visits from celebrities, but this unexpected act of kindness made all of our holiday seasons brighter."

Leadership in Action: CEO Theresa Roemer Credits Mother, Mentors and Mindset for Accomplishments

How did you get to where you are today? My journey to where I am today is built on a foundation of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Every step along the way, I faced obstacles, but I approached each one with determination and a “never give up” mindset. Instead of being discouraged by challenges, I used them as opportunities to grow and improve. Consistency was key—I committed to showing up and giving my best effort every day. I also learned not to take “no” as a final answer. Instead, I saw it as a chance to push harder, adapt, and find another way forward. It’s this combination of persistence, resilience, and unwavering focus that has brought me to where I am today.
