I had my back pack stolen last Saturday.
After working out I went in to take a shower, got my towel, shampoo, soap out of my bag, locked my locker and proceeded to shower. 10 minutes later I came out, the locker was open slighly and my backpack and water bottle (yes water bottle???) was gone.
I dont use a BIG lock, only as small el cheapo keyed pad lock. Not one that uses the cheap little generic key but a real key. Im still sure if you pulled HARD enough you could get the lock to open. There is always a SLIM chance I didnt lock it but I have never done that before. Still it doesnt matter, someone took it.
Contents of back pack: Schick Quatro razor with 4 new blades, shaving gel, after shave, deodorant, Clean T shrit, Tank top socks and underwear. Just used underwear, work out gloves, lifting straps and lifting hooks.
Thats it, no money, no key, no phone... My pants where on the bottom of the locker as well as my Polo shirt hanging up. I check most of the lockers nearby and a few others that where open t see if someone had taken it and moved it. Nothing.
No manager on site since it was the end of the night, last 5 minutes but I reported it to the worker on duty. Of course he didnt see anything or anyone leaving in a hurry. The next night the manager had already left so I didnt get to talk to him.
They have surveillance cameras just out side of the locker room door so you can see anyone coming or going as well as outside. I figured if they left with it we could easily spot them since it was done within a 10 minute window or time.
Tonight I talked to the manager, filed a report and went in to work out. On the locker that my stuff had been taken from there was a lock identical to mine that was also taken with my backpack. I told the manager it looked identical and after my workout I was going to go out to my truck and get my key to see if it fit.
Guess what? It fit and my backpack with EVERYTHING including my water bottle was inside. I guess the thief was a little smart and figure it was not worth getting busted over since there was no wallet, credit cards or anything of value so they put it back. Yes I am 100% sure it was gone, it was not moved before and not there the next day.
I'm guessing what they did is moved it to another locker with their lock so they could come back later the next day or two and check to see what was in it but after finding nothing figured it was the safest thing to put it back. For a crook/thief not to dumb...
Sorry for the LONG story. What is yours?

He embarrassed him in front of everyone telling them what he had done and he never returned.
