    Pinballs Championship Ring Stolen

    Toronto Argonauts legend Michael "Pinball" Clemons had one of his Grey Cup rings stolen Friday night at B.C. Place.

    The Argonauts were in town for a game against the Lions and Clemons, the team's vice-chairman, was roaming the sidelines throughout the game cheering on his team and talking to fans.

    At one point, Clemons tossed one of his Grey Cup rings to a fan in the stands for a photo opportunity when the fan reportedly grabbed the meaningful piece of jewelry and ran off with it.

    "Last night at #BCLions game Pinball tossed his Grey Cup ring into crowd for fan to take pic with it. A woman tried it on, then left building," said TSN 1050's Mike Hogan in a tweet Saturday morning. "If anyone knows story or even better had a picture of woman, please contact Vancouver police."

    The 49-year-old Clemons is a former player and coach of the Argos and one of the most recognizable faces in the CFL. He won three Grey Cups as a player withy the Argonauts (1991, 1996, 1997) and one as coach (2004). He was also in his current role as vice-chairman for the Argos' 2012 Grey Cup victory.

    Too trusting. I wonder if they have anything on security camera? If not, that ring is probably melted down, and pawned for some BC bud or something else.

    Looks like Pinball will be getting it back. It was all a misunderstanding she says...

    Yes, I didn't plan on keeping it, but I just ran off with it.
