Vegas is one of my tamest snakes. When I have visitors over, I usually bring her out to show off. Had a friend over, he got pretty drunk, and wanted to see the snakes. I got her out, no problem. As soon as he walked into the room, she went nuts, striking at him and ended up tagging me in the process. None of the other snakes reacted to him like that, just her! Even my ATB was her normal calm self around him, only Vegas freaked out. It was very odd. Took her out the next day and she was back to her 'lovable' self. Who knows? Maybe some people just put off weird pheramones that some snakes are sensitive to. As I mentioned, this guy was pretty toasted, so maybe his somewhat eratic movements were making her uneasy. It was interesting though!
