26 Cool ‘Went Looking for Copper and Found Gold’ Moments

These days, you take your wins where you can get ‘em. One Redditor remembers the time he ran into an old flame he’d lost contact with. They chatted at the bar until last call. She’d wanted one last beer but couldn’t get it. So one night after his shift, he drove past her house and saw her lights on, and decided to take her that one last beer. She introduced him to her boyfriend, and they hit it off right away. In fact, her boyfriend ended up being the best man at his wedding, and they’re still close to this day. 

Not the ending you were expecting, but surely not the one he expected either. 

These are the kinds of stories Redditors came forward with when they recalled the times they “went looking for copper and found gold,” proving that a win is a win, no matter how small.
