What's In America's Drains?Roto-Rooter Compiles Annual List
POSTED: 8:05 am PST December 28, 2005
Clearing out America's clogged drains, you find everything but the kitchen sink.
Roto-Rooter has compiled a list of the strangest items its technicians found in toilets, pipes and trenches over the last year.
Topping the list is a live Civil War cannon shell discovered by a Roto-Rooter crew digging up a Mississippi sewer main. An Army Ordnance disposal team took it away.
There was also a cat, rescued after 24 hours in a North Carolina storm sewer.
Roto-Rooter's No. 3 item was a collection of G.I. Joes, sent down an Illinois toilet by a 3-year-old. When he couldn't get them back, he flushed several Matchbox cars after them.
In all, 15 toys were recovered.
According to a news release, the company also fished out a large stash of drugs that a had been flushed when police arrived at an apartment and a collection of miniature liquor bottles that had been flushed at a business.
The 2004 list included a python, a prosthetic eye, a stray kitten, a diamond ring and an eight-foot clump of human hair.
