Default Re: Rattlers freed in ?Snakes? theater prank

I read the Internet New from Phoenix today. It said that a 10 inch rattle snake was found inside of the theater in the hallway, and was caught by a security guard. The other snake was found out side of the theater.

They think the snakes came from a field accross the street from the theater that is under construction.

I was over in that area today, I must say that must have been one hell of a craw for them snakes to get from the field to the theater. It was a long way to craw for a snake.




'Snakes in a theater' turns out to be hoax

Police say reports that rattlesnakes were let loose during a showing of Snakes on a Plane at a north Phoenix theater have taken moviegoers for a ride.

There is some shred of truth to the story, Phoenix police Sgt. Joel Tranter said. A 10-inch-long rattlesnake was found Friday in a hallway at AMC Desert Ridge 18, near Tatum Boulevard and Loop 101. But it likely slithered inside on its own, Tranter said.

A security guard swept the snake outside and held it in a Tupperware container until a member of the Arizona Herpetological Association could take it away. Snake handlers had been called earlier in the day to retrieve a rattler from outside the theater.
