Kentucky Man Finds Python in Rental Car
PADUCAH, Ky. (AP) -- The next time Dan McBride rents a car, he may want to inspect it not just for dings and dents but also for snakes.
The assistant athletic director at Eastern Kentucky University found a two-foot-long ball python in his rental car this week as he left the Ohio Valley Conference baseball tournament in Paducah.
McBride got into his car Wednesday night with a colleague and saw the snake draped across the console.
McBride said he thought it was a rubber snake someone put there as a joke. He even gave the snake a pat and put the car into drive.
As he drove toward the exit, the snake lifted its head. McBride hit the brakes, then started to get out of the car. But the snake was on the gear shift, forcing McBride to keep his foot on the brake

I sure hope someone claims the snake before the local "Humane" Society euthanizes it. Shot, I'll take it IF no one in Pudacah claims it.

That sort of thing won't happen to anyone who would actually appreciate it....only the ones who have a mortal fear of them will be that lucky. Kinda like millionaires winning the lottery....never happens to someone who actually needs it. I personally would have jumped for joy if my rental car came with a free pythin!

I should start visiting rental car places more often. That would make my whole trip worth it.
