Snakes On A Plane???

You heard it right and I'm not talking about the movie here. Andrew Bacas, identified as the coach at Yorktown High School in Arlington, VA, was bitten by a juvenile canebrake rattlesnake. The rattler had allegedly gotten into his luggage in the belly of the aircraft on his way home from a team trip in South Carolina.

He reached into his bag after he returned home and was bitten. After this, he slammed the top on this luggage and zipped 'er up, sealing the beast inside. The authorities dealt with the snake by spraying it with a carbon dioxide extinguisher, essentially freezing it and killing it.

Sorry PETA, another one bites the dust.
