Do NOT buy watermelon from Walmart. I repeat.

Do NOT buy watermelon from Walmart. Unless you like snakes.

We were getting sand for Luke's sandbox tonight and there was this huge crowd gathered around the watermelon crate. Hm. People do love their watermelon, I guess.

Then I hear, "Dude! He's a fast little booger! He's under there!"

Ummmm... excuse me?

Then I hear, "At least it's not a python."

UMMMMM... EXCUSE ME????

I grabbed what I needed and got my bootie out of that store. YIKES! While we were checking out, they managed to grab it. It was a corn snake? They're not from around here, so I know nothing about them. Okay I don't know anything about any snakes. But they were going to release him OUTSIDE THE STORE. Hello!!! You are a bunch of geniuses!!!

far as I know corn snakes are not poisonous. I have seen snakes in the garden center before a couple times actually. So it wouldnt surprise me to see a snake in the produce section someday. It was probably in there the whole time from when it was picked and shipped

Oh I looked it up, it's not poisonous. I just meant for the creepy factor don't buy a watermelon. lol

I remember the Hobby Lobby south of us had a snake up inside one of it's decorative posts it had for sale...one woman bought the post and got a not-so-sweet surprise...it was on the news a few years back.
