In suburban Chicago, the man who stole the Rings of Sweetness received two and a half years after pleading guilty. Payton's Hall of Fame ring and a replica of his Super Bowl ring were the victims of a smash-and-grab at the Walter Payton Museum in Walter Payton's Roundhouse. The Roundhouse is a complex in Aurora (and incidentally, the oldest existing limestone roundhouse in the country) which features a comedy club, cognac bar, brewpub and museum. The brewpub makes the award-winning Payton Pilsner and Sweetness Stout beers. Really.
Anyway, dude (Mr. Graham) got 30 months for the rings (valued at $4,100) and drug possession and probation violation. Oops. Next time, he should steal things that are both more valuable and less unique. Although the theft of the rings was all over the news and actually have Payton's name on them, Mr. Graham sold them to a pawn shop for $150. Oops.
