History Channel Host Finds Thousands In Cash
R. Lee Ermey, host of History Channel
R. Lee Ermey went on a recent drive with crew member Harlan Glenn to a museum when Lee spotted a black object on the road. He pulled over to find the black object was a bag full of money.
The black bag had cash and checks that appeared to be on route to a bank to be deposited. Harlan said, “Just on one deposit slip alone was, like, $3,700, and another one for $2,800. There was easily $8,000 in cash and the rest in checks.”
Ermey said to the Missoulian newspaper that he thought: “Some poor guy right now is probably getting fired, probably having the worst day of his life. So what we did was we went right down to the Wells Fargo bank and deposited it for him.”
A business expert at the Wells Fargo branch, Don Luke, said, “We weren’t sure if it wasn’t ‘Candid Camera.’”
