Legendary Los Angeles Dodgers‘ announcer Vin Scully lost his World Series ring at Costco this week, putting a scare into the MLB world. Thankfully the ring turned up later…in a bag of meat.
Wearing your World Series ring to shop at Costco is a highly questionable life decision. I would be inclined to roll my eyes and make fun of the person who did that…unless that person was Vin Scully. Then it would be OK.

“While Christmas shopping at Costo.” Vin Scully is just like you and me. So we all worried for a little while, until we were relieved to get some good news.
Great news! Vin Scully's 1988 World Series ring has been found. (This was not a drill -- Vin thanks everyone for their concern.)

It turns out that the ring was in a bag of meat…ribs, specifically.
Normally I would be inclined to make jokes at the expense of the person who finds his World Series ring in a bag of meat, but when it’s Vin Scully…
