A road crew saw it crossing the road near the north fort area.
the weight was 114lbs

Would it suprise you if i said..."I think it's a fake photo"?

The shadow cast by the snake looks way to symetrical.

SB is right. The only other shadow you see is on the man on the right. His lower left leg shadow is not the same as the snake, it is much smaller and further back while the snake shadow is to the left of it.

If you the looker is at 180, the snake shadow is 270 and the man on the right shadow is close to 340.

The guys holding it may have been super imposed but the snake is real.

Which throws the whole picture into question. If the guy holding was superimposed then the perspective of the snake could make it appear larger.

I was about to say something like that. None of the guys have shadows?
The snake is a snake. Makes you wonder where and when that snake was found.

Since this story implicates PA, LA and TX, it kind of makes you want to question the size claims of most everything coming out of Pennsylvania, Louisianna or even Texas for that matter. "No, I swear Honey, really, it's a bigun". :lol:

Sure it is.......... :roll:
