It’s the go-to taxi service for many people after a big night out, so it’s no wonder that Uber cars often have strange items left in them.
Uber has now revealed the most weird and wonderful items - and you won’t believe some of them are real.
Over the past year (February 2018 - February 2019), thousands of items have been abandoned in Uber cars, including a cat, 45 pieces of chicken, a Masonic apron and a Bros poster.
Other strange items include a painting of The Last Supper, a Nandos uniform and the script of Legally Blonde.
In particular, riders in London, Belfast and Bristol appear to the most forgetful, while unsurprisingly, Saturday is the day when most items are reported lost.

A spokesperson for Uber said: “We’ve all experienced that moment of panic when you realise you’ve left something behind in a car, plane, bus, or train, only to realise the chances of getting that item back are slim.
“Because Uber offers 24/7 in-app support and records the details of your trip, you’re much more likely to be reunited with your belongings, especially when you can call your driver directly from the app to arrange its safe delivery back to you.”
