Mostly offtopic but, if he put it on and the Wight saw
and killed him and the hobbits, then what? How
about: Strider soon gets antsy at Bree and probes
around, talks to Bombadil and they find the ring.
Strider goes to the chatfest at Rivendell and...Bilbo
takes the ring! (remember Gollum lived for centuries
and moved around when in possession of the ring).
Alternately, Sam (and perhaps Merry and
Pippin) survive to accompany Bilbo.
