Vending machine blasts loud music as pilot orders cupcake

It seems the pilot wasn’t aware of what was coming when he went to order a cupcake at a vending machine.

The incident occurred in a nearly-empty airport; we’re sure the TikTok user was thankful for it after what happened.

After his payment went through, the pilot was waiting to collect the cupcake from the pick-up box. But, to his surprise, the vending machine started blasting a catchy song.

The lyrics “I love sprinkles, yes I do, yes I do�played on full volume, and that, combined with the silence at the airport, drew a lot of attention.

“This is so embarrassing,” the pilot can be heard saying as he waited for his cupcake. The caption on the video further explained his embarrassment as he wrote: “Everyone looked at me.”

He also noted in the text placed on his video that he wasn’t aware of the cupcake vending machine that played music with every order. If he knew, he probably wouldn’t have used it.

Funny incident has TikTok users in hysterics

Even though it was embarrassing for the pilot, people couldn’t stop laughing at his plight when he chose the wrong vending machine to curb his hunger.

Reacting to the video, one user joked “They should add confetti blasters and strobe lights”, while another said: “I would walk away in shame.”

Another user wrote: “I would have a panic attack over this.”

“I wonder how many employees at the airport hate when people get cupcakes from this machine,” read one comment.

Another TikTok user added: “Omg no. This is the perfect way to make sure I never use that machine again. LOL!”
