Woman calls an Uber after a night out and the most badass Shrek-themed minivan showed up

Sometimes, the most unexpected surprises happen during the most ordinary moments. A woman was simply heading home after a night out, not realizing that an amazing Shrek-themed vehicle would pull up to take her. The woman, Mel, who goes by @420blazemelup on TikTok, shared the surprising and fun experience with her followers on the platform, leaving many in awe.

"There's no f***ing way that Lyft just pulled up like this," Mel said, speaking to the camera in disbelief. In the background, someone screamed, "That is so awesome." The woman turned the camera to show a smiling man driving the most unusual vehicle. On the surface, it appeared to be a normal taxi, but the Shrek-themed decorations completely transformed it. The car had Shrek-themed stickers on all the doors, and a green neon sign with a message, likely about merchandise, added to the quirky vibe. Inside, the "Shrek" movie was playing on a screen in the backseat while Mel and her friends sat in awe. The car was also filled with Shrek plushies and lit up in the movie’s signature green hues, completing the whimsical experience.

There was also a massive Shrek-shaped green light on the dashboard, adding to the over-the-top theme. Mel held up a Shrek plushie she had found in the backseat, further embracing the whimsical ride. The car's number plate featured "Louisiana" along with "Shrek 1, Sportsman's Paradise," completing the fun touch. At the end of the video, the driver stepped out of the car, proudly wearing a Shrek t-shirt. The caption of the video read, “The universe gifted me… Shrek Uber.” The post quickly went viral, garnering more than 5 million views and over 1 million likes. People flooded the comments section, sharing their excitement and thoughts on the unexpected experience.

I gotta experience Shrek Uber."

@darlingrosehoney asked, "Did you ask about his t-shirts?! Does he have a shop?! PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS." The taxi driver replied, "I have sizes from medium to 3xl. They are 20  dollars if you live in the New Orleans area and 30 if I have to ship it. I take Venmo and cash app Zelle." The man goes by @nola_shrek_mobile on TikTok and runs his services on Friday and Saturday from 8 PM till 2 AM for personal rides, bachelorette parties and birthday parties as well.
