En Fuego



When you are in Walmart and get an overhead all store page *repeatedly* telling you if you own this specific vehicle, you need to return to your car *IMMEDIATELY*, it's probably because your car's on fire.

In this case "gotta run, car's on fire!" would have been a valid excuse.

Got to Walmart, parked, and was unloading Journey, and one of the cart-getters was walking by and joked about how big and mean he looked, and I joked back, and he glanced back behind us and went "whoa man that's weird".

Yellowish brown cloud, almost looked like a smoke bomb or something.  I thought "joy mustard gas!" and we laughed about it for a sec.

But it just kept smoking.. and we're like... ummm... and I said it looked weird from the color like a chemical fire, so he says he's going to go check it out and I joke "I'm gonna run the other way!" and he laughs. Wanders over there and comes running back saying he thinks he saw flame on the smoking vehicle, so we run inside and tell someone.  Within a few mins, that announcement, repeated like, 10 times before they stopped.

The place was crawling with the fire department by the time we were leaving about 20mins later.

Soooo glad we weren't parked anywhere near it.  Feel sorry for whoever it belonged to and anyone who was parked beside them.
