Default Ever find unexpected things in the under body pan?

well i did an oil change today. After getting the under body pan off i see:

1. Air compressor belt, busted and torn, no wonder my ac hasnt been good lately

2. a dead bird. It entered through the grill? it was tucked in there..gross

3. a jack in the box burger wrapper

no so lucky i guess.

anyone else find anything good in there?

I can't remember where I saw this, but i've seen pics of a person who had a huge dead rat lying in his lower engine cover.... I've found sockets and nuts/bolts that i've dropped, nothing too wild and crazy

We are lucky to have it . I forgot to tighten my tentioner pulley up after I tightened my serp belt for the SC . The pulley fell of and stayed in the pan . Lost all power in the steering , lucky I wasnt to far from home . Also found alot of tools Ive dropped and found them months later

busted ac compressor belt? how many miles are on your car? maybe THAT's the reason many of us are starting to have weak AC issues and climate control inconsistancies... I better get under the car and check mine too...

I might have posted a pic of the dead rat I found on mine. It was decomposing, cleanup was disgusting, had to put the car up on ramps, take off the cover and sterilize it.
