GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!....UPDATED!

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

This is a really incredible and special find. Congratulations to bcboy for finding this ring and for making the banner.

I do feel bad, though, as bcboy didn't get the opportunity to break the news himself to the owner of the ring who had lost it so many years ago. That is truly a special thing that I look very forward to being able to do someday when I find a class ring at the beach or in a park somewhere.

Amazing story though, and very cool that the hockey player registered and posted about his lost ring.

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

I just got home and am pretty amazed at all the responses and making banner which I never though I would. I really am excited and best of all I now have Marks contact information and can get the ring back to him. This is awesome. Thanks very much for your help "zaxfire69". No worries about contacting him befoer me, Im gladd you did and now Mark can get his ring back. I showed his name in one of the pictures figuring someone would help out and thats great. The sooner the better. Ive been trying since I found the ring last Friday, which was January, 29th. I left an email with the Kamloops Blazers but have not receive a response yet and tried Canada 411 for a name search but nothing. I knew it was just a matter of time and here it is, six days latter and thanks to "zaxfire69" for his contribution Mark will get his ring back. I called Mark and left a message on his answering machine and hope to talk to him soon. Thanks again eveyone and all the best.

Who knows maybe Mark chows 26 will get a metal detector and join the hobby? You should get both the banner and a honorable mention out of this it really is a great story that should get the attention of the national press.
This is the type of stories you would hear about on Paul Harvey. Lets' see where did put Oprah Winfrey's number?

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

Oh Man BCBOY...I am so glad you are able to get the ring back to him. Plus I am really happy that I could help you out. Thank you for being so kind to me. I was afraid you would get upset with me trying to help you out with the research end. I saw your post this morning and just started looking. I got lucky and found a post on the internet that showed his address. After that I then used my Iphone that has an app that looks up phone numbers. I thought this is to good to be true. His was listed. Called the number all else is history. If ANYONE ever needs me to help find anything just let me know. I am willing to help anyone with anything. After all that is what I joined Treasurenet for..BCBOY I am still in shock..Man do you realize that you found a ring lost 22 years ago and were able to find the owner after all those years. What are the chances of that...You are the man...Keep up the good work..Let me know how everything turns out. Your friend...Zaxfire69 of Mississippi!!

After all the gold, diamond, Roman, etc., finds posted almost daily, I find this story the most inspiring and uplifting, from beginning to end, with a great final scene still to come. As an almost daily MDer, there are a few items on my long list yet to find, and I just put at the top this experience, next to a gold coin hoard, of course.

Thanks to all the players in this beautiful story, and hope it gets some national press coverage as well, as it deserves.

The law of ten-fold return says that for every hour you spend helping someone, you will receive 10 hours from the Universe in return. For every dollar you give away, you will receive 10 dollars from the Universe in return. It might not come immediately, but it will come."

I bet he's out there right now! ....or maybe he was all along! Isn't pro hockey the natural progression to swinging a metal detector?

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

Just read through the latest lost treasure mag at barnes & noble and this story blows everything in there out of the water! Congrats on banner and honorable mention!

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

That is a great find and an even greater story, although I am disappointed that the finder didn't get the pleasure of locating and speaking with the owner and someone else felt it was their mission to intervene instead

Oh well, least it gets returned and I'm sure bcboy is as excited about reuniting the ring with it's owner as he was when he dug it

hh,
Brian

Re: GOLD HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP RING!!!!

This has to be one of the best story's of the year, if not the number 1.. its great the owner is getting it back.. If i had found that i would of wanted a little help as well... great job finding the owner.. sometimes its not that easy, when the founder called the franchise and they didnt return his call or even looked up the owner for him well done on all of it..
