Lost bracelet found 25 years later... inside a chicken.

You heard me - a chicken.

  • I foot you - a cow!
  • The truth will out. 6 year old chicken fister exposed, Says he "played hide-and-seek" and "other games" with his brothers in their grandfather's barn near Sherburn.
  • I'll arm you - a goat!
  • Usually when you hear this story it is a wedding ring found at the beach, or inside a fish caught near the location of the loss. First time I've heard the chicken iteration.
  • Variety headline: Lost gerbil found 25 years later.
  • "It was in pretty immaculate shape. Everything was working on it, and all the engravings on it were still legible," Giles said. "It was quite the surprise." What works or doesn't work on an identity bracelet? Was it a Swiss Army ID Bracelet? Dick Tracy Camera Phone ID Bracelet?
  • *starts worrying where his keys are*
  • Where's Hank? I'm sure he had a hand in this somewhere.
  • And we've been blaming those poor magpies, all this time.
