An unknown number of valuable One Piece trading cards were stolen from Jersey Mike’s Arena in the hours following Rutgers basketball’s game against No. 7 Michigan State on Tuesday, a university spokesperson told NJ Advance Media. The incident, which occurred sometime between 9 p.m. on Tuesday and 9:45 a.m. on Wednesday, is currently under investigation.
As the Rutgers University Police Department does its due diligence, we at the Rutgers Rant decided to dig into the case ourselves to find out who stole the merchandise that is selling for hundreds of dollars a pop on eBay.
How could this happen? Who are the suspects? Could it be ... one of the hosts of this show?
We dive into all of that in our latest episode of the Rutgers Rant, where we share what we know right now, explain why the cards are so valuable in the first place, set the scene at Jersey Mike’s Arena in the hours before the incident and give our best guesses as to who could have done it.

We also look at the men’s basketball team, which won two of its three games last week — both at home and in overtime — against Northwestern and Oregon to create some separation from the bottom of the Big Ten. Have Steve Pikiell’s Scarlet Knights proved the doubters wrong so far?
