Domino’s Delivery Takes a Shocking Turn: What 68-Year-Old Dan Simpson Encountered in Boise Will Leave You Speechless
Ever wondered what happens when a delivery guy’s kindness outpaces a Domino’s soda stock? Meet Dan Simpson, a 68-year-old man in Boise, Idaho, who didn’t just deliver pizza—he delivered a heartwarming moment that turned an ordinary night into a viral sensation. When the restaurant ran out of the Diet Coke that came with Brian Wilson’s order, Dan didn’t hang up or dash off; nope, he popped into a convenience store, bought the drink himself, and completed the delivery. Talk about dedication! What’s even sweeter? The tip offered, the refusal, and the community’s overwhelming response that raised over $171,000 to honor Dan’s years of grit and grace. Could a simple sip of soda really pour out so much goodwill? Stick around, because this story bubbles up far beyond just a cold drink.
In March 2026, 68-year-old Dan Simpson was delivering Domino’s in Boise, Idaho, when the restaurant ran out of the Diet Coke included in Brian Wilson’s order.
Simpson called to ask whether Wilson wanted another drink, but got no answer. Instead of delivering an incomplete order, he stopped at a nearby convenience store, bought the Diet Coke himself, and brought it with the pizza. When Wilson saw what Dan had done, he offered to increase his tip. Dan refused. He said the $6.60 tip he already had was a good tip.
The exchange was captured on Wilson’s Ring camera, which he posted online. People then learned Simpson had delivered for Domino’s as a second job for 14 years and was preparing to retire. Wilson wanted to do something nice to give back for Dan’s kindness. He launched a GoFundMe for him and encouraged viewers to join in the fundraiser. It eventually raised more than $171,000.
Simpson retired from his full-time job weeks later.
