I have. He didn’t lose $50,000, but he did lose ALL he had with him.
Unless it is antique... the kind that has matching and registered serial numbers on all pieces... and prolly rfid.
Good luck fencing that one!
Pwned.

You guys are a bunch of heartless jerks.
This very thing happened to me.
Except it wasn't a hotel bar, it was a street corner in a bad neighborhood. And it wasn't a hotel room, it was my car. And it wasn't something in my drink, it was a gun. And it wasn't an attractive woman, although that's what my first assessment of him was.
And it wasn't a fancy watch and ring and stuff, it was my wallet... and my pants.
That's a moment I'll never forget, walking back into my house and trying to explain to my wife where my pants went. I've never seen her so angry, women get really short tempers when they're eight months pregnant.

There are people who are surrounded by bigots
and know it is wrong, but are afraid to be vocal against it.
These people are going to pull the lever for Obama
and they are not being polled.

Who drags around $50k in jewelry and personal belongings to a convention?
I could understand a woman bringing new earrings and such....but a guy? What did this guy have? A $30k watch? A $8k pen? I don’t get it.
This is a guy? A Republican guy?
Obviously,his name wasn’t George Constanza! 8 Dollars!
ROTFL! omg
At least he has the right idea about Iran.
An expensive lesson. The jewelry items I can comprehend a bit but $1000 for a belt?
“As a single man, I was flattered by the attention of a beautiful woman who introduced herself to me.”
If that were to happen to me I would know to be on my guard — beautiful women look the other way when they see me.
According to this website, $30,000 is about right for a Rolex.

The guy might be rich, but he sure is stupid. Must’ve inherited his money. LOL
State Farm Insurance Claim Form
Items stolen, include description.
1) Watch. An expensive watch. ROLEX. Gold band. Oh, with diamonds.
2) Speaking of diamonds - two diamond ear rings.
3) And a diamond bracelet.
4) Another diamond bracelet for my other hand.
5) And a diamond ankle bracelet.
That’s what I would like to believe, looking at the value of the items, but he’s a GOP delegate and a fixture in Colorado Rep. politics.
They guy in this story has a whole lot more money than sense.
A true story. I swear.

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don’t be naive enough to think it couldn’t happen to you or your friends. Here’s how the scam works. Two seriously good-looking 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the trunk.
They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look.
When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say ‘No’ and instead ask you for a ride to another Home Depot. You agree and they get in the back seat. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen November 3th, 10th, 17th, & 24th. Also December 1st, twice on the 8th, once on the 15th, and very likely this coming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful.
60K in cash? Something smells.
Republican metrosexual type.
Well, at least it was a chick he went with.
Hey Owl man, there really is a big differece between using guns to rob folks and someone getting slipped a mickey. I’ll plead guilty to being a jerk (I’m entitled to be one), but you have to admit the lawyer getting screwed is funny, or at least all of us jerks find humor in it!
