These are the things Richmonders left in Ubers last year

Gold teeth, fake eyelashes, three curtain rods and a tub of yams — these were among the most unique items Richmonders left in their Ubers last year.

Driving the news: Uber's annual lost-and-found index is out , and the folks at the ridesharing company shared the Richmond-specific items with Axios.

• These were items left between April 2023 and March 2024.

Why it matters: Everyone forgets things, but Richmond might be the only city in the nation where riders travel with — and forget — their TV remote, Uggs and at least one birth certificate.

Zoom in: Here are the 10 most unique items left by Richmonders, according to Uber:

• "Gold teeth."
• "3 curtain rods."
• "Uggs."
• "A tub of yams."
• "Pack of lashes."
• "Golf clubs."
• "Birth certificate and paycheck."
• "Red and white pedometers, they look like poke balls."
• "Remote control to tv."
• Oculus VR."

The big picture: But Richmond's got nothing on some of the things folks across the country left behind. A few of our favorites, presented as they were submitted by passengers in the app:

• "Panty liner and 1000 bucks. That's all I can remember."
• "Some lotion or my thong."
• "Benihana garlic butter."
• "Frontal hair toupee."
• "A tray of meat pie."
• "A candle that says 'See you in court.'"
• "Police-grade handcuffs."
• "My father's beard softener."
• "My girlfriend's pregnant pills."

Worth noting: If you or yours left something in your Uber, the company recommends calling your driver to get it back, or check out their help page if you left your phone — the fifth most forgotten item by Richmonders.
