Hidden Cash Donor Leaves Money In Bottles Of Bubbles At Hollywood Dog Park
The first @HiddenCash drop of Sunday took place at Lake Hollywood Park, the dog park beneath the Hollywood sign.
The mystery donor hid nine bottles of bubbles in the dog park with $80 to $100 in them.
Even @smokey_bear got inspired by @HiddenCash encouraging people to go outdoors, hiding a Smokey Bear doll.

@HiddenCash urged those who found the bottles to tweet pictures holding the cash and blowing bubbles, which he then retweeted:
