Uber reveals the quirkiest items left behind: Guitar, lightsaber and a puppy

If you’ve ever hopped out of an Uber and realized, hours later, that you’ve arrived home leaving something precious behind, you’re not alone.

Weird and wonderful things have popped up in Uber’s Lost and Found Index this year – and let’s just say a lost phone, wallet or bag are just some of the tame items that have been left behind.

Uber’s lost property is home to some quirky items

With more than 3.8 million Aussies using Uber to zip around the country, the ride-share app’s annual lost and found index proves one thing: we’re a forgetful bunch, but at least we’re entertaining about it.

While the common finds have always been devices (phones, headphones, tablets, and laptops) and clothing, this year’s list includes items that no one would even expect to find in any lost property department – including a BBQ chicken, a Steve Irwin toy, a lightsaber, a bass guitar and even love letters.

Devices, such as phones, headphones, tablets, and laptops are the most common things left behind in Ubers. But guitars have also been left in ride shares.

But how does one even forget their teeth? That’s the real question people will have when they see the full list of items. This year someone left behind their bottom dentures – true story. And the quirky items didn’t end there. Making it to the top of the weirdest items people have forgotten inside a vehicle also includes $1,200 worth of meat raffle winnings, $500 worth of exotic fish, a breast pump, an cooler filled with crabs and fish, and even a vibrator.

Imagine making any of THOSE phone calls when you realized you got home without that precious cargo.
