EPCOT is full of new foods to try, rides ranging from classic like Spaceship Earth to brand new like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, and exciting shows to watch.

But when one Guest left the Disney Park after visiting during the Eat to the Beat Concert Series, they found something that could spoil any magical day at Disney: a wrecked car.

Got out of Hanson at Eat to the Beat and found this in the parking lot with a note saying sorry and $100 but no information to help file a claim.

Reddit user u/nothingbetter85 posted a picture of what they found waiting for them when they returned to their car in EPCOT’s parking lot. They wrote, “Got out of Hanson at Eat to the Beat and found this in the parking lot with a note saying sorry and $100 but no information to help file a claim.

Another Reddit user was quick to offer advice, suggesting contacting Disney’s security and wishing u/nothingbetter85 good luck on the situation, to which they replied,

We did contact security and filed a case with [Florida Highway Patrol] but they didn’t send anyone out because the vehicle wasn’t occupied and is on private property. They said they have an investigator who may contact us but we’ll probably only see footage if a case is pursued.

Many Reddit users are discussing the craziness of this case, from the $100 bill to the apology note with no insurance information.

The original poster mentions that the Florida Highway Patrol isn’t being very helpful and writes, “we’ll see if Disney does more.”

Nothing will ruin a day at Disney quicker than walking back to the parking lot only to find your car destroyed! We’ll definitely be waiting along with u/nothingbetter85 to see if Disney can help when it comes to this bizarre situation.
