Losing a wallet is a frustrating ordeal. But one Seahawks fan lucked out when his wallet was returned by none other than Seattle running back Marshawn Lynch.

On Tuesday, Seattle resident Jason Lynch (no relation) misplaced his wallet while at a Shell gas station in Marysville, Washington. Lynch noticed a familiar football face enter the gas station, Seattle Seahawks star running back Marshawn Lynch. Jason describes the encounter on his Facebook page.

    But after leaving the gas station, Jason noticed that he had accidentally left his wallet behind.

      The running back was among other Seahawks players who was heading to visit students at Marysville Pilchuck High School on Tuesday.

        Jason's post on Facebook describing the wallet quickly went viral, and even prompted a retweet by Marshawn Lynch himself. Lynch's next game is against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, November 23.
