The craze for Stanley stainless steel drinking cups reached new levels last week when a woman was arrested and accused of stealing 65 of them, worth almost $2,500, from a store in California.
Police in Roseville, in Placer County, northeast of Sacramento, said Sunday that they were called Wednesday to a report of a theft from a store on Stanford Ranch Road in the city.
“Staff saw a woman take a shopping cart full of Stanley water bottles without paying for them. The suspect refused to stop for staff and stuffed her car with the stolen merchandise,” police said in a statement on Facebook.
So she had like 0.0003% of the Stanley Cup?! A 1/3 of a percent of the Stanley Cup by weight would be something like 1.8 OZ, so maybe enough to peel off one team’s roster?
(And yeah now I know, it’s a bunch of mugs, not that Stanley Cup.)
