Patriots Fan Stole 27 Giants Super Bowl Rings, Thought They Didn't Deserve Them

The New York Giants twice beat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl, and one particularly disgruntled Patriots fan decided to take his revenge after the Super Bowl XLII loss by stealing a bunch of the Giants' championship rings.

According to Zeke Faux of Bloomberg, Pats' fan Sean Murphy and an accomplice broke into the E.A. Dion Inc. jewelry store in Attleboro, Massachusetts, and stole a safe containing 27 championship rings in 2008. Murphy, a lifetime cat burglar, was not only looking for a big score but to also stick it to the team that beat his beloved Patriots.
