April 26th: On this date...

... in 1996, your University of Kentucky Wildcat center and Junior Varsity superstar Nazr Mohammed was the victim of a burglary at Wildcat Lodge. The freshman was robbed of his championship ring by three teens. These teens were later arrested, after a young boy on a school bus saw the attempted sale of said ring. The police recovered the ring, which had "1996 NCAA Champions" and "Nazr Mohammed" engraved on it. To this day, whenever Nazr is walking down the street in Lexington opposite 13-year olds, he instinctively crosses to the other side of the street, to avoid confrontation.
