Survivor-Pittsburgh Wedding Edition

[capnsweets]

Today my friend Chrissy got married. At the reception, my friends and I are "cutting the rug" on the dance floor. The best man starts boogying down and says he is going to change his shoes and he will be right back. Like 10 minutes later Chrissy looks all stressed, another country song comes on, and I decide to park it.

I sit down and Wendy, my friend, is like "The best man got bit by a rattle snake, it was under one of the cars out side." I am thinking, rattle snake in Pittsburgh? Yeah right.

This has the guys doing their Crocadile Hunter voices, blimey i will give it a kiss and all impressions, and then all the guys decide they need to go out side and SEE the rattle snake. I was perfectly content sitting in the recpetion.

So after 20 minutes of placing bets on which one of our losers is going to be rushed to the hospital we go outside to find out there is a very large snake painted on a bus. I then suggest the best man is tripping and imagined the snake is real....but alas the police come and find the snake in the wheel well of a guests car. (Thank god it wasn't our car).

The snake had left teeth marks in the best man's pants but he was unhurt! So then i went back in to be tortured with 4 more hours of country music and debated going outside to see if the snake could provide me some better entertainment!

LOL. Country music isn't THAT bad, but variety is good.

Well I am a Country fanatic so there :tongue2: hehehe but I do like a good variety now and then .... glad to hear the best was man was okay

Ugh, some country, but Geez! You can't shake it fast to those songs!

[Punxatawny]

glad to hear that the best man is ok. but I agree with you I can't take much country music, I use to listen to it when I was little. I was a die hard country girl back then but since have changed

So I want the rest of the snake story. Was it arrested? Any idea of how it got there?

[capnsweets]

No idea on how it got there, and like men are, eventually they all, including the police got bored and decided the snake would slither away.....Nuts!

[Lizgirl]

So are rattlesnakes common in Pittsburgh? They are common where I grew up, Idaho. I've never seen a wild, live one though. Did you go look at it?

[capnsweets]

I went and saw the guys but no snake, i didn't want to peer into the wheel well of death and no rattlesnakes aren't that common-I think!

Thanks for answering my questions.
