You want to show of your snake do so in contained environment for educational purposes, in an event that is planned and where people are present because they want to learn.
x2.

I was waiting for someone to point this out.

And chances are its pretty stressful to the snake.

I'll admit I've taken my snakes into stores, but it's usually say, on the way home from an expo or coming from the vet. But they're in a pillowcase, sitting in my bag. And I don't let people know that I have a snake in my bag. I'm not leaving them in the car.
