From Spanx, glass eyes and poutine, to whips and shower curtain poles, forgetful Canadians have jumped out of their Uber rides, leaving behind some of the most bizarre items.

On Tuesday, Uber revealed a list of some of the most outrageous items that people apparently own and have forgotten in the ride-hailing company’s vehicles.

For instance, someone got out of a ride and left behind the top half of a giraffe costume, leaving us to believe the person left the car wearing only the butt-end of the zoo animal costume. Another customer forgot a devil torch costume.

Others have forgotten a ukulele, dentures and a graduation certificate. Someone even left a lone picture of former NBA great Kobe Bryant. Oh, and someone forgot two tickets to a Garth Brooks concert, which may or may not have been done on purpose. Same goes for the Justin Timberlake tickets another customer “forgot.”
