From AP- A Super Bowl ring lost four decades ago off Waikiki will soon be returned to former New York Jets center John Schmitt.

KGMB-TV in Honolulu reports that a Honolulu family wants to return the ring to Schmitt, who earned it when the Jets upset the Baltimore Colts in the 1969 Super Bowl.

"That that ring was found is a bloody miracle. It really is a miracle, you know," Schmitt told the TV station.

The ring slipped off Schmitt's finger in 1971 while he was taking surf lessons about a quarter mile off Waikiki near the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. He didn't notice the ring was missing until he got back to shore.
