A little pee pee
Last summer I was riding the 24 downtown to go to Target and an elderly woman about 3 or so feet tall (she was a Little Person) was sitting on the front facing seat nearest to the front of the bus. She pulled the cord to stop around 4th Ave, got down from her seat, and walked off the bus. We all noticed that the back of her pants was wet. After she left the bus, I saw the driver look in the rear view mirror and we all saw that the seat she had been sitting on was also wet.
The driver made some mention of the fact that the bus would have to be turned in at the station to be hosed down, but we were so close, that he just finished the route.
So when I saw the post that sort of asked what the oddest thing you’ve wound up sitting next to/near on the bus is, mine would have to be…. midget pee.

A college of mine was running an express rte, on Hennepin, and a lady sitting in the peanut gallery ( the side-facing seats up front) lost control of her bowels in the worst way. To make it all the more worse, that particular bus had fabric upolestered seats, rather than the usual vinyl. Because of the “contamination” they didn’t try to clean it, they ordered a new seat to replace that one.

Just a side note: “midget” is a derogatory term to dwarves/little people. “Dwarf” and “little person” are both okay.
