The Diggers filmed a show in my hometown of Fairfield PA that was part of their Gettysburg segment. I know the gentleman that owns the property they hunted and I also hunted there last Saturday. I turned up some nice items and then had a long talk with the land owner.
The present owner is in his 80's and the property has been in his family since early 1800's. The Diggers were very respectful of the property and returned all of their finds to him. Some of the finds were sure to have been treasures of his past relatives and of course he is very grateful for their return. I can also say they did not plant any finds and the show aired only what was really uncovered there.
This gives me a new found respect for the guys, yes their over the top antics and rather bizarre language abbreviations make me shudder but it is after all an attempt at entertainment. The irony of all of this is that Ric Savage's wife Rita is also from our small town.
