Near "Deadly" Copperhead encounter in Alabama.......

Venom17 Jan 28, 2004 04:56 PM

Well folks I have seen it all tonight. I just saw on the local news about a near tragic experience involving a young boy who found a "Copperhead" in his mother's sack of potatoes. Well as you probably guessed....It turned out to be a highly venomous corn snake. Pretty funny story on how the press presented it.

Ok....so I was not the only one who saw it. I called my local channel (not the first there either) and corrected them. Of course they did not air the correction. So I Emailed CBS and made my comments to them on their site.....idiots..............
