Maybe it was some odour on you or in the air.

I still haven't been bitten by any of my boas. I've had boas for years.

My male Hog did something like what happened to you a few years
ago. He was still pretty small, not big enough to breed. I had
him out for over an hour, I noticed something seemed weird. His
little head had swelled up like some kind of Chinese dragon or
something. He just became extremely agitated all of a sudden. It
was quick. I knew enough to get him back in his cage pronto
without getting bit. He did a really impressive 'dispay' strike
once he was back in his cage. He struck the air & showed the
pink from his mouth in a real deliberate fashion. It was pretty
cool seeing it.
(From the other side of the cage's glass doors).
