If you live or have visited Florida, you probably have seen dollar bills nailed to the walls and ceilings of bars, mainly establishments close to the beach.
The owners of Hott Leggz, a traditional bar located in Fort Lauderdale, decided to take the money from the wall and donate it to their employees, who are unpaid due to the coronavirus crisis. Twenty-five employees of the pub have been dismissed and the place is only delivering food.
