View submission: Have you ever picked up a hitch-hiker?

I once picked up my (what I now know to be my uncle) on a street. After some good conversation (and a joint between us) we realized that we were family...distant uncle then, not so much now.

In university I tried to surprise my girlfriend by taking a train out to Kington ON to surprise her the night of her birthday, which she wasnt expecting me due to my late in the school year lack of funds.

So after getting to the train station I hop off and hail a cab only to hop in and realize I left my wallet on the train, in the stupid seat back pouch. So i got out, and started huffing around trying to text my gf's friends to see if they even had a car at school to come pick me up. A young girl walked up to me and started making small talk asking me if I went to Queens, the school I was headed. I told her my situation and she offered to give me a ride with her friends who were picking me up.

Two more girls show up and pick us up, and I tell them my lame tale. They were stopping to get booze on the way back and bought me a cheapo bottle of wine to get things back on track with my surprise. I couldn't believe it. They dropped me off at my gf's and creeped me through the windows just well enough to see her do the old jump and wrap the legs around hug. The girls added me to facebook, and I realized, through looking at our mutual friends that the driver was my second cousin, and we chat alot more often then before, which was never.

TL DR: Lost wallet, got ride, stranger driving was 2nd cousin
