Is this Germans? It would be funny if it is.

This has to be one of the craziest, movie-like robberies in history. I’m sure the French are using all possible resources to find them. Those guys are pretty safe.

That stuff ain’t gonna be easy to sell, either. Black market all the way. Gooooood luck with that.

I assume they will bust it all up and sell the diamonds separately. It would be a lot harder to trace, if not nearly impossible (other than there being so many of them).

I’ve seen the British Crown Jewels, along with the rest of that collection, in London at the Tower. It is actually pretty damn incredible.

No worries, fellow 6Packers. The wife and I will be at The Louvre in about 6 hours, so the official investigation will soon be underway.
Tell your wife to ignore the guy wandering the grounds asking if she has a moment for a love story. Hes just trying to tie a yarn bracelet on her and get some cash.

One of the objects stolen was found. A crown. It was outside broken.

You go to all the trouble of robbing one of the most famous museums in the world. You run out with the jewels you were after and then you accidentally drop the crown that “features 1,354 diamonds and 56 emeralds.”

Is this similar to marching all the way down the field. You’re down 2 points on second down with 29 seconds left and amazingly in field goal range. You call your last time out, then call a pass play across the middle and it gets intercepted?

Done. All I can report is . . . the Louvre is still closed.

Also, all other museums here are regularly closed on Mondays. So, all other attractions instantly sold out.
