Someone stole my favorite Auburn shirt today

I'm sharing this because I'm surprisingly upset over this, and this is the only place I know to vent it.

I went down to the gym below my office today to work out. Did my normal workout, only two other people were in the gym. Finished up, went to go to the locker room to change, and my shirt was missing.

It's a tiny gym, and most of the people who go there are regulars, so I usually just hang my clothes up on a hook on the wall in the locker room and don't bother with a locker.

Well this time my shirt was gone. Not just any shirt, but my absolute favorite shirt. A navy shirt with orange calligraphy letters that say "Auburn Tigers" and "Est. 1856" with the Auburn logo. The shirt my grandmother gave to me for Christmas years ago. The shirt I wore in the stadium during the Kick Six. The shirt I'm wearing in this picture on the phone with my now-wife right after the Kick Six.

I'm not a large guy, it's very unlikely either of the other two guys in the gym could have confused it for their own. I'm also the only male Auburn fan I know of in the office.

I've never been this mad over losing an article of clothing. I went to the lost and found at the front desk and ask if anyone had turned it in. Nope. I asked the janitor if he had seen it. Nope. So not only did my shirt get stolen, but I had to go back up to my office to get my stuff wearing my Under Armour heatgear shirt.

I'm hoping one of the other guys in the gym packed it up without thinking and will turn it in on Monday. If not I'm going to be stalking the gym all of next week.

I tried searching online, but I can't find a shirt like it anywhere. If anyone knows where I could find one I'd be eternally grateful.

So if we lose to A&M this weekend (*knocks on wood*) I'm blaming the asshole who stole my shirt, and I apologize to all of you.

Seriously, who the hell steals someone else's t-shirt? Especially in a professional office building.

Thanks for reading. War Eagle and beat the Aggies!

If you're in Auburn, you might try posting in r/auburn. They might be able to help you.

If he's the only male Auburn fan in his office, there's a good chance he does not live here

I would definitely do this man, just reading this upset me. I know what it's like to lose something so sentimental from a grandmother. Maybe their guilt will get the better of them. War eagle and good luck! And if we do lose it's most definitely because of this asshole.
