Jordan Schaffer was working a Sunday shift at Charleston's Restaurant in Omaha when pop star Jason Derulo walked in.

Derulo and the large group he was with racked up a nearly $800 tab.
After the meal, Schaffer was shocked when he saw that Derulo left him a $5,000 tip.
"I couldn't believe it. Like, seeing $5,000 written out on the check was just - it was, like, heart-stopping," Schaffer said.
"To see it happen to myself is just kind of bewildering," he added.

The tip couldn't have come at a better time for Schaffer. His college tuition was actually due last week.
He told Derulo he would be using the generous tip to pay for his next semester.
