It's a long shot, but my brother-in-law left his Aggie Ring in an Enterprise rental at Richmond (RIC) Airport. The engraving is Matthew Clayton Gill class of 2017.

It has been reported lost and his hopes of finding it are slim, but you never know…

TIA

Enterprise is usually good about customer service. I assume he called them?

That sounds like the story he told his wife. Hope the ring keeps the bookie/lone shark at bay

Good luck to your BIL. I lost my first one when I tossed my girlfriend, now wife, in the Gulf of America in Galveston.

Remind him to log the loss with the Ring Office. That will get the Network involved, too.

Every once in a while I can't stand the feeling of jewelry on my hands and take off my rings and watch.

My doctor said im severely artistic and also massively a beast.

I always take my jewelry/watch off before I go to bed.

If the OP was aiming to get the GB hens all riled up, this would be the way to go about it.

I've had mine since 1978 and probably haven't had it off more than 5 times.

Is that a sign of artism? Might explain why I've never been able to stand jewelry for very long.

People who never take off their rings kind of amaze me.

My ring was, so after I gained about 12 lbs, it became really tight. Now that I've lost 20 lbs, I wear it everyday again. But I want to hear more about artism? WTF is that?

Why does not taking your ring off amaze you? What could you possibly br doing that would require it? Getting your finger amputated maybe.

I wouldn't say I'm amazed, but I can think of a lot of times I don't wear my ring:

* sleeping at night
* showering
* swimming
* at the beach/lake
* when I'm playing golf or any other sport
* yard work

I only take my ring off when I'm on or around large bodies of water.

Too late now, but here's a suggestion... $5 carabiner from Home Depot. This is where I put my rings every night, or if I take them off for other reasons. I've never lost them (or my truck!).

Taking it off in rental is weird, but not as bad as that guy a couple weeks ago who took his off and set it on the bumper of his car and drove off.

that's a good trick. Another I use is to ONLY take my rings off at one place - the dish I have in my bathroom.

If I'm going to lift or run, my rings stay in the dish.

If I'm doing yardwork, they stay there.

The good thing about your idea - the location is portable.

I was thinking it was from here, but it was on the outdoors board.

I think my ring is sitting in a drawer somewhere. Somehow the dang thing shrank over the years so I don't wear it much.

I take mine off to sleep, eat, wash hands, workout, or work with tools. I don't like having then on with wet fingers. Ever seen a degloving injury? Ever seen a ring get crushed and stuck on a finger?

I lost mine swimming in Lake Lewisville back in 2012. When I got it back I keep it on my desk in its box. I only wear it during games or at work.
