Move over beer, because there’s a hidden treasure of 99 bottles of rum waiting to be discovered. A couple in New Jersey, Cathy and Roy Aukamp, experienced an unexpected surprise while settling into their new home. Just two days after moving in, their basement was flooded due to a storm. In the process of removing the wet plasterboard from the walls, they were taken aback as an avalanche of empty booze bottles came tumbling out. Cathy, sharing the unbelievable moment on Instagram, can be heard jokingly saying, “Thirsty? It’s five o’clock somewhere!”
The video of the discovery garnered attention online, with commenters even humorously suggesting that the Aukamps must have bought a house from Captain Morgan himself. Amidst the laughter, others pointed out the seriousness of the previous owner’s addiction. In an interesting turn of events, the previous homeowner, who had been struggling with alcoholism, came across the viral video and reached out to Cathy and Roy. He confessed to there being hundreds more bottles hidden in the walls and shared that he had been sober for three years.
This peculiar find isn’t the only one of its kind. Homeowners all over have stumbled upon extraordinary treasures within their walls. From an unexpected stockpile of cigarettes and Viagra, to a woodpecker’s collection of acorns weighing nearly 700 pounds, and even snakes hiding behind artwork and drywall – these discoveries never cease to amaze.
