There’s something missing in the Walmart parking lot.

In the snowbank near the entrance to the plaza, is a gaping hole where a silver Pontiac Sunfire was lodged.

The Walmart car had drawn attention on social media lately, with people debating why it’s there.

With the amount of snow on it, it had been there for a while — and there were differing theories on why and how long it’s been there.

We last saw the car in the snowbank Monday afternoon.

By yesterday evening, it had been removed.

Earlier this week, TimminsToday contacted the local Walmart store to see if they knew anything about it. We were referred to Walmart corporate affairs, where we left a message.

With the car disappearing, we tried to touch base with them again today, but haven’t been able to connect with someone who can talk about it.

People had fun with the car when it was in the snowbank, and are having just as much fun now that it's gone. 

Local Klingons got in on the fun.

 

 

Then, there's this video from our partners at 92.1 Rock.
