The day I found a full set of dentures under an old carpet pad

Pulling up this nasty shag in a 1970s house in Tempe, and my pry bar hits something hard. Thought it was a nail plate, but nope. It was someone's top and bottom teeth, just sitting there grinning up at me. The homeowner had no idea whose they were. Spent the rest of the afternoon joking that the floor must have really knocked someone's socks off. Ever find anything truly weird under an old floor?

Oh man, that beats my find for sure. Helping my uncle demo his kitchen years back, we pulled out an old cabinet and found like two dozen empty glass milk bottles from the 50s, just lined up in a row against the wall. They were all dusty but not broken. Weirdest part was the little note tucked behind one that just said "for the milkman." Always wondered what the story was there.

Wow @kim.joel, that's a cool mystery.

Guess the milkman finally got his tip.
