Former MLB player, Lenny Dykstra, has long been known for odd behavior and has had his share of run-ins with the law. What happened this weekend may be weird even for Dykstra’s standards. The former big league outfielder was eating at a Jersey Mike’s sub shop near Linden, New Jersey. It seems the bread was hard on the sub he was eating, so he took out his dentures and wrapped them in a napkin (a common practice by some denture wearers.)

Nails Update: This has now escalated to “Operation Search Missing Teeth” while @JerseyMikes – they make @Subway look like red-headed stepchildren – Nails will be back at you just after break of dawn – something I know all too well, to report on my missing teeth. #LouGeorge pic.twitter.com/zGlqWV0mtM

He left the dentures wrapped in the napkin and they were discarded with the trash. When Dykstra returned, he was told the trash had been discarded to the dumpster. So, with the help of a friend and some nine hours of digging though a dumpster, the dentures were found.
Kind of a metaphor for life in that, no? Who’s writing the country song about it?
