Default Weirdest thing you've ever cleaned off your car?

today, i was at school and looked down at my fender well and noticed something brown like dirt. I took a closer look and got some off, smelled it, and it was brownies. I of course washed my truck today when i got home and got it all off, but it just got me thinking what everyone else has found on there truck that wouldn't usually be on the road?

Helped a guy I worked with scrape a dove that flew to close on the highway off the tank on a truck. It was a CO2 truck so it was a big object the worst part of it was the trucks are white

My car was sitting sitting in the garage covered for about 6-8 weeks. I was waiting on two replacement iForged wheels. Everyonce in a while when I'd go out there to open the hood and start it, I'd notice pecan shells and whole pecans on my intake. I was thinking WTF. One day, I went outside to talk on the phone and I noticed a squirrel run out from underneath my car. Apparently it was using my engine bay to store nuts.

Nothing a shop vac and leaf blower didn't take care of.

Buddy of mine was driving down to the King Ranch to do some hunting. WIDE OPEN field to the left, WIDE OPEN field to the right, when a deer comes charging out and T-boned his new truck (GMC 1500 with the Duramax and the Allison tranny). Craziest ******* thing I ever saw.
