How does that "make sense"?  It doesn't matter which slip is signed and filed 
at the bar, so long as a signature is affixed to a piece of paper that has the 
customer's data on it, along with the price the bar charged. POS systems print 
one with "merchant copy" and one with "customer copy" so that 
servers/bartenders etc don't have to explain which copy goes to whom and that 
it doesn't matter.  They're identical in every way shape and form.  (Although 
some older systems print the whole CC number on one copy and a series of x's 
on the other, because of identity theft, most states have outlawed the 
practice of printing people's information, lest some unscrupulous shithead dig 
through trash)
