Apparently back in 2017 an Uber driver drove 3 businessmen from DFW Airport to Nashville, TN for a meeting after a flight delay that wouldn’t get them there on time. About 700 miles, 11 hours and $1,100.

Why didn't they just rent a car?

“Just Uber it,” took on a whole new meaning for three Chinese business people who flew into DFW Sunday night.

nm that answers it

mr beast (a YouTube star) claims to have done a coast to coast. Now that probably isn’t practical since uber limits consecutive work hours.

I rode with a guy that Ubered someone from
DFW to Jackson, MS. Said he even got them to pay for his gas back. pretty damn smart if true.

Wasn’t there a guy a couple of years ago who Ubered all the way back to Oxford, MS, from Atlanta by accident?

Some drunk student at WVU went back home to New Jersey once on an Uber/Lyft. There are TONS of Jersey kids at WVU.

I can barely handle that shite on my own. I can’t imagine what that’s like with three assholes I don’t know in my back seat.

There was a drunk arse frat star a couple years ago in NOLA who was from (Katy?) Texas and told the driver his address and passed out and the fricking driver took his drunk arse to the tune of $1k+

My longest ride was a few Christmas eves ago when like 6 of us got an XL and the total was ~$55

I got in an Uber at walk ons by tiger stadium on a game day and was getting dropped off at a hotel off college to sleep on a floor of someone’s room because I got left in Baton Rouge. The driver and her friend in the front seat were talking about calling it a night and going back to New Orleans after dropping me off so I talked them into ending the Uber ride and dropping me off in Metairie for $50

If I remember right, the guy was at the Peach Bowl when TCU was beating Ole Miss by like 35 at half... He got drunk and got in the Uber and passed out and woke up somewhere on the way home.
