Story summary

Kevin Bacon, 68, is pleading for help in locating a FedEx package containing his old clothes that he shipped from upstate New York to Ireland on September 26 but got rerouted multiple times around the globe instead. The package was initially sent to Memphis, then to France, and subsequently to Germany and Israel before returning to France again. Bacon admitted he is frustrated by the situation, as FedEx has not delivered the package to his filming location in Ireland despite it being rerouted multiple times since its initial dispatch. The actor noted that the box traveled from Israel back to France on October 3, only to be sent back to Israel the following day before heading to Germany and then back to Israel again on October 6. Bacon hopes his followers can assist him in figuring out where the package is currently hiding.
