TAMPA, Fla. - A $5,000 diamond meant to make its way on to a necklace or set on a ring made its way into an 80-year-old woman's belly instead.
The Tampa Woman's Club held an event over the weekend where they poured 400 flutes of champagne. Inside each flute was a cubic zirconia, and one of the flutes contained a $5,000 diamond donated by Continental Wholesale Diamond.

After patrons finished their drinks, the real diamond was nowhere to be found.

what the hell is wrong with people? why wouldn’t she clean it before handing it to someone??
wtf?!
uhhh, no, you can keep that, too....
I can’t imagine. She thought it was acceptable to take a diamond in a bag covered with her...
Oh, never mind.
Not to worry. She worked it out.
LOL!
I once was fiddling with a gold ring my grandfather gave me as a young lad while lying down in bed....I dropped it and it fell right down my throat....
Yup... I had to wait a day and “find” it ....the ring was shiny like brand new...
Never played with it again especially with my mouth open....
whose brilliant idea was that?
