Lord Stanley Bruised

StanleyCup 

So it looks like the Stanley Cup was slightly dented after too much merrymaking in Detroit.  The NHL trophy took a tumble at Cheli’s Chili Bar, a restaurant owned by Red Wings defenceman Chris Chelios.  (He’s also my future husband, but don’t tell him because it’s a surprise!)  NHL spokeswoman Bernadette Mansur says the dent has been smoothed out, so the coveted Cup is as good as new.

The incident got me thinking about prized possessions being accidentally broken, ruined or lost, either by the proud owner or an admirer.  Has that ever happened to you?  What was the item?  Were you able to repair or replace it?  Did you get over it or does it bug you to this day?  Share your pain be clicking on the No Comments/Comments link below.  Today’s Jack Nation bonus code is CUPCALAMITY.  It’s valid until June 12th.
