Capitals’ Andre Burakovsky mistakes stranger’s car for an Uber, gets a ride anyway

Capitals forward Andre Burakovsky spent part of his time off (he’s currently out with an injury) enjoying himself at a nearby Topgolf, which he documented on Instagram Stories.

What he didn’t mention was that he got there accidentally by getting into someone’s car thinking it was his Uber pickup. The guy behind the wheel — Instagram user manny4prez — took him to Topgolf anyway, because what are the chances an NHL star mistakes your car for Uber? Here’s his Instagram post:

The forward from the Capitals @andreburakovsky thought my car was Uber. You know I had to drop him off #epicnight #thecapitals #NHL
