In 1966 in London, the World Cup Trophy, at the time the Jules Rimet Trophy, was stolen from a stamps exhibit during church service. The job was a professional one, and the trophy would elude authorities for months. Englands legendary Flying Squad was tasked with tracking the trophy and bring her home, but it would be instead uncovered by Pickles, a local sheep dog. While Pickles was able to enjoy minor fame, the trophy was on borrowed time, only to be once again stolen 13 years later in Rio, having still yet to resurface. In this heist story rife with familiar tropes, was it two separate jobs, or as we may have discovered, was it all one big plan by Pickles' owner, David Corbett, to have the fanciest salsa bowl in the UK? Find out today y'all.
