A little odd for this forum, but the community has been able to answer really odd questions in the past, right?

So, the other night, I put a piece of chewed gum back in the wrapper and in my pocket because there wasn't anyplace to throw it away at the time. The shirt then made its way into the wash. Yep. Left a nice dark stain around the piece of gum, and embedded the gum in the fabric.

Any suggestions on how to get the gum and stain out?

I hate to lose the shirt, but, a small price to pay to not litter.

All input appreciated.

Thanks!

If you can but the shirt in the freezer over night. The gum should freeze and then you could crack most of it off.
