Snakes On An SUV!
A man in Pennsylvania recently got a personal introduction to the Animal Uprising™. He stopped at a local convenience store to gas up his SUV. Which is when he was informed that he had a passenger.
BETHLEHEM, Pa. - A snake slithered out of the engine compartment of a man's SUV when he stopped to get gasoline, causing a bit of commotion at the station. Scott Naylor was at a Wawa convenience store in the city on Friday morning when a woman at the gas pump next to him began yelling, police said.
A boa constrictor more than 5 feet long was emerging from Naylor's engine compartment, police said. It slithered out to the store's parking lot, where police were able to capture it.
"It created quite a traffic jam there, because everybody wanted to see the snake," said police Detective Mark DiLuzio said. "(It's) something you don't see every day in a Wawa parking lot."
And at these prices you won't see any more (Cue rimshot). Obviously, the snake was intending to hijack the SUV but became disoriented - probably from the gas fumes. No we know that the Reptile legions are trying to hijack SUVs. We strongly urge our readers to check under the hood and make sure a snake is not trying to disguise himself as a cable in there. You do that by pulling all the wires out where you can see them clearly. And, on the bright side, the resulting walking to work will be good for your heart!
