mmdaytontexas Posted August 11 Posted August 11 https://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/49585268/high-school-football-player-arkansas-finds-viper-helmet This high school football player during preseason practice played nearly an hour before feeling something moving in his helmet. When he took the helmet to the trainer, they found a 2-foot cottonmouth snake behind the padding. There kid got a new helmet and went back to practice. Me, I would have needed therapy, and then gone out for basketball.😁 5 10 Quote
Moderators Jordan Scruggs Posted August 11 Moderators Posted August 11 Saw this. How the hell did a snake get in there? Feel like there's no way this helmet was on a hook in a locker in a locker room. Quote
Rocky P Posted August 11 Posted August 11 It would take me a minute to be able to put on another helmet. He could have legit died 1 Quote
Pwood Posted August 11 Posted August 11 He had the helmet on for almost an hour - that is crazy!! 1 Quote

Moderators Blake Munroe Posted August 12 Moderators Posted August 12 Sent this to a buddy of mine who is an AD. He said it must’ve been a receiver if he didn’t realize it was in his helmet…. Because they don’t hit 😂 3 Quote

Glad my helmet wearing days are long past. Quote
mmdaytontexas Posted August 12 Author Posted August 12 I want to meet the person brave enough to stand over the helmet and puor water in it to force the snake out. They would have had to give me one of those 5ft. grabbers with a pistol grip. Quote

There would have been a lot more ventilation in that helmet by the time i was done. 2 Quote
