Bracelet Found In Chicken after 25 Years



meat1.jpgMore than two decades after Aaron Giles lost his identity bracelet, he’s finding how it was discovered tough to swallow.

A meat cutter at Olson Locker in Fairmont came across the shiny object in a chicken gizzard and saw a name, address and phone number engraved on it.

Giles had lived in Fairmont as a child and played hide-and-seek and other games with his brothers in their grandfather’s barn near Sherburn.

“I would spend most of my time out at his farm, and that’s the only place I can think of that I would have lost it,” Giles said about his bracelet on Thursday. The 31-year-old said he thinks the bracelet was lost when he was 4 or 5.

The barn was dismantled a few years ago, and Giles thinks his bracelet was imbedded in materials used to construct another barn in Elmore, about 45 miles away.

The bracelet was found in a chicken that came from an Elmore farm. Olson was able to track down Giles’ father and return the bracelet.

“It was in pretty immaculate shape. Everything was working on it, and all the engravings on it were still legible,” Giles said. “It was quite the surprise.”
