ROCKWOOD, Mich. (WDIV) - Last week, a man came in asking about snakes and he also wanted to buy a rat, but when he was left alone, he did the unthinkable. Yes, he stole the snake by hiding it down his pants. And although it's clear now, nobody thought that's what happened. When they realized Pasta the Python was missing, they thought he escaped. "We were thinking about it,” said store worker Callie McLeroy. “We were just like there's no way he could just be missing." So, they went back through the video. "The first time we watched I was like no that didn't happen,” store worker Emily Scheiwe said. “I was like play it back. We had to watch it a couple of times before we were like Oh my God. He just put it in his pants."

Humor patrol, you’re on in 3 - 2 - 1 ....

I’m always telling people: “No, I’m not stealing a python.” :-P

[BBQToadRibs]

That’s ballsy.

Damn, missed it again. (”Honey, where’s that Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing course? Gotta start over.”)

You can’t steal a 4 foot python.
They don’t have feet!

Gives new meaning to "pocket python".😎

[Buckeye McFrog]

Is that a python in your pants, or...

[rktman]

Well, there is that asp-ect. ;-)

He better be a python specialist. Pythons have at least two rows of needle sharp teeth and a nasty bite.

This thread will be fun to read later. Not so much at work, though.

Someone should page Laz. He'll have some valuable insight, I'm sure.

PING for Pasta!!!

I guess I need to confess that in the 1960s I had a 3 to 4’ bull snake that when it was well fed I would let ride inside my tucked in shirt. Gave the other kids quite a start.

"Oh my God. He just put it in his pants." Good thing he diidn't unlimber a 4 footer OUT of his pants...she would have fainted dead away.

The one eyed love python that preys on the bearded clam.
