Best Answer

The only concern you might have is oil-fouling on the sparkplug.When an engine is turned upside down the oil from the crankcase seeps around the piston rings into the cylinder head and out any open valves.Into the carburetor via intake valve,or exhaust manifold via exhaust valve.It will eventually dissipate.

You removed a spark plug from your riding mower and gas came out is this normal?

It is not totally unusual. It should not happen though. It means that your carburetor is leaking gas through while the mower is not running. It will fill the cylinder and get into the oil. A quick fix is to get an inline gas shutoff valve and just shut off the gas when you are not using the mower. Otherwise you will need to rebuild the carburetor to fix the problem. You will also have to clear out all the gas from the cylinder and if it got into the oil you will need to drain and change the oil.
