He visited my elementary school every year to do his presentation with bags full of snakes and things and was everyone’s favorite. Got treated like a rock star.

He had this one giant rattlesnake in a locked wooden box that would be all pissed off and rattling like crazy, and he’d just dump it out on the ground where we were sitting on the floor only about 6 feet away from it. You could never do anything like that today.

When this place eventually self destructs due to the morons in charge, I hope the alien archeologists find a copy of the “Swampwise” pbs documentary one day to prove that we weren’t all dipshit dumbasses

I remember when he came to My grammar school with his bag of snake as well. Same for the rattle snake, think my mom still has the pic. Even through my Teacher knew it was coming, she came unglued and hauled arse outta the gym shaking her head.

RIP Joe
