Donald Trump offered to buy ‘Home Alone’ star Daniel Stern a drink — so the actor ran up a $7K tab

Daniel Stern managed to pull one over on Donald Trump while filming “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York” — running up a $7,000 bar tab after the future president offered to pay for his drinks.
The actor, now 66, recounts the cheeky tale in his memoir, “Home and Alone,” out Tuesday.
At the time, Trump owned Manhattan’s iconic Plaza Hotel, which played an important location in the 1992 movie.
“Donald ended up doing a cameo, but his real contribution was letting us film there, lending the luster of the Plaza to the movie,” Stern writes.
“The Wonder Years” narrator shares that producers asked him to meet Trump, who was said to be a “huge” fan of his.
“He was not a great conversationalist,” Stern notes, “and kind of a nothing personality, but the meeting paid off brilliantly.”
The actor recounts how, one night during filming, he and a couple of movie crew members were enjoying a drink at the famed Oak Room in the Plaza, when Trump and his then wife, the late Ivana Trump, waltzed in, “waving to the guests and wanting to have his picture taken.”
“Donald spotted us and proclaimed so everyone could hear that he would be picking up the tab at our table,” Stern writes, noting that the group lifted their glasses in appreciation as Trump departed, “feeling like the host-with-the-most.”
Given carte blanche, Stern writes that he and his buddies then began to drink “until there was no more booze left in that bar” and generously buying “round after round of drinks for the entire bar.”
The group, he says, stayed until closing time: 4 a.m.
The “City Slickers” star says that, to this day, he and one of his drinking buddies disagree on how much the final tab was — with Stern estimating that it was “at least seven thousand dollars.
“We still feel really good about that.”
