Hey Mike!
i think i can beat your mushroom story... i restored a couple turn of the century conn sousaphones a few years ago, and in one of them i would occasionally hear a mysterious rattling. everytime i tried to shake it out, however, i had no luck until finally out fell a large, badly battered wooden spoon, encased in sludge. NO clue how or when it got there, nor do i really want to know, but i'm glad i cleaned it before i played it...
