VERONA, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin man lost his wedding ring while bowling eight years ago. Now he has it back.

Justin Blair was throwing his first ball at Wildcat Lanes in Verona one night when he felt the ring slip off. Dozens of bowlers helped in the search but couldn't find it. His wife, Becky, was upset. They searched again the next day, but no luck either.

Earlier this year, WISC-TV reports, Becky Blair heard that a church was taking over the building. Figuring the lanes would be torn up, she took a shot in the dark and asked the church for help.

Months later she got an email — they found the ring.

The Blairs had the ring resized immediately. And since then it hasn't left Justin Blair's finger.
