This would have never happened at Home Depot.

I had a feeling he was there for his wife. Poor guy, this would have never happened on a golf course on Sunday.

I tried to buy a copperhead at the Lowe's here and they refused to sell me one.

My grandmother brought home an inside plant from the nursery that had a snake in it. She lived her entire life in the country so this really wasn't a thing for her.

She whooped it half to death with her broom and then slung it out into the back yard.

wonder what the odds are he brought in the snake and made it bite him just for the obvious lawsuit.


crazier things have happened

So did they buy any gardenias?

I've been in a Lowe's garden center before.

Really makes you think.

I need to go to Lowe's and sell them the service of my Aussie Shepherd. She finds and slays copperheads, and has never been bit yet.

I have fond memories of my great grandma killing a rattlesnake in my Pow-Pows front yard with a (gardening) ho.
