Cam Heyward retells snake scare horror story from Week 10 locker room

Cam Heyward shared a wild story of a snake sighting in the Steelers’ locker room before their Week 10 matchup with the Commanders.

As if facing the formerly 7-2, now 7-3, Washington Commanders in a rough road matchup wasn’t scary enough, it appears there was a Washington snake sighting in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ locker room for the Week 10 matchup.

In the soon-to-be-released 95th episode of Steelers’ DT Cam Heyward’s podcast, Not Just Football with Cam Heyward, there was a teaser released on social media that highlighted the retelling of a snake sighting in the Steelers’ locker room.

Heyward stated that while he was warming up before the Steelers’ matchup against the Commanders, his teammates were dealing with an actual snake in their locker room.

While the thought of the snake remaining in the locker room is frightening, luckily for the Steelers, Pittsburgh was able to leave that problem for the Washington Commanders and their Northwest Stadium staff to handle.

Pittsburgh has another member of the animal kingdom to conquer in Week 11: the Ravens. The Steelers will look to extend their lead over Baltimore in the AFC North divisional title race on November 17th, at 1:00 PM EST.

A number of Florida golfers ceased play briefly over the weekend to allow a giant alligator to cross the fairway.

The accompanying footage, shared to Facebook on Monday by WINK, shows the gator walking slowly across a fairway as one golfer observes that the reptile is handicapped.

“He’s missing a foot,” he says.

Matt Devitt of WINK Weather wrote on Facebook: “Check out this big boy walking across a Bonita Bay golf course this past weekend from a WINK viewer. Welcome to Jurassic Park!”

Viewers may note that the golfers in the background, while affording the gator a wide berth, appear more interested in plotting their next shots.

Among the 300-plus comments was this from a viewer named Brandi: “I love how everyone is just going about their golf game, like there’s not a baby dinosaur walking across the course!”

A handful of comments echoed the sentiment expressed by a viewer named June: “I would give up golf for sure.”
