Three Phillies World Series Rings Stolen

Dumb criminal alert -- a Phillies fan who called himself "Rockie Killer" allegedly swiped three World Series rings from Citizens Bank Park Thursday afternoon right after he gave team personnel all his contact info.

Matthew Mervine of Berlin, N.J. was part of a group that was tossed out of Game 2 for being too rowdy, according to Philadelphia Police. The 22-year-old wanted to file a complaint against the Phillies. Around 5 p.m. he was lead to the front offices to file papers.

This is where the whole thing gets bizarre.

While he was in the front office, he filled out a job application that included his home address and phone number. Why not? It would seem totally reasonable that the Phillies would want to hire someone who was just kicked out of a playoff game for being rowdy.
