Snakes in a cab prank

[LadyByrd]

So, did you guys hear about the guy who filmed people in his cab with his albino python roaming around just to see their reaction? Freaked lots of people out. Not exactly the best way to gain acceptance of our hobby/pets from the outside world.

First thing I learned as a kid from my dad: never spring an animal on someone or use an animal to try and garner a reaction.

I hated this thing. Not only are those people guaranteed to have a negative reaction towards snakes, but it undoes a lot of work that any of us have done in reducing people's fear of these animals.
On top of that, I think Burmese pythons are illegal in NY.
