Guy posted this on facebook. Snake was killed in Glen Jean WV.

Bag as an Anaconda.Don't think them snake boots would do any good.

Thats a big one, but I doubt it was killed in West Virginia since it is an Eastern Diamondback.

Not shot in WV. That guys name is Nick Kearns. He played cornerback for Georgia Southern University from about 1998 to 2001. He won two division 2 championship rings with that team. That snake came from his hunting club in Screven county, just outside Newton, GA. It is not fake but rather the zoom on the camera makes it appear to be bigger. It was a monster of an eastern diamond back. That picture is about 7 years old.

The pic is photo shoped, both his hands are at about waist level. his right shoulder should be extended while holding at that level, and that snake would be 10 to 11 ft long. also a eastern doesen't belong in wv. nice try.

Looks like he is using a forked stick or something to hold it up. Not his hands.. Dunno ???
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
If attacked by a mob of clowns, go for the juggler.

I thought it looks like it could be photo shopped aswell. looks like he is holding it close to the camera and far from his body, making it look bigger than it actualy is. Good trick for all you fisherman out there. Thats a big snake any way you look at it.



BP1992

He was also killed in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and several other states.  That pic has been going around for a while.  It was even in the Georgia Outdoor News magazine (GON).
