One of the oddest mysteries we’ve heard in a while has been solved after a group has uncovered why parts of novelty Garfield phones have been washing up on France’s Brittany coast for the past 30-plus years.
For years, random pieces, including headsets and Garfield faces have been found along this stretch of beach. French news outlet FranceInfo reports that around 200 Garfield phone-related pieces were found in 2018 alone.
