The Seattle coaching staff decided to play a little practical joke on the players. The Seahawks were pranked by a fake snake in a Gatorade cooler and their reactions are somewhat tame to how I would react.
Seattle players were typically lured into the office of director of player development Mo Kelly after being asked at some point, Have you tried the new Gatorade?
The results are pretty funny, and the Seahawks put together a video of the shenanigans.
It scared the heck out of me, QB Matt Hasselbeck said. [via]
The snake prank cooler contraption was given as a gift to the Seahawks equipment staffers from the Green Bay Packers equipment guys. They had used it to trick their players last week. The cooler was then handed off after last weekends game at Qwest Field between the two teams.
[caution: some NSFW language in the guys reactions]

Here is how the ad for the Red Bull Manny Mania contest was filmed. It went down in Toronto and it went down like this. Two large 18-wheeler semi-trucks pulled up at the Yonge-Dundas intersection followed by a mini-van with a secured flat roof that served as a mid-drop landing pad. Once all three vehicles came to a complete stop with bumpers touching, Ryan and Magnus rushed out of a nearby van to get into place. Decenzo climbed on top of the first truck, ran full speed towards the man-sized gap between the two semis kickflip still flying 20 feet above Canadas busiest intersection, the second gap approached fast. After an ollie down to the reinforced van, and not a second later, another 8 foot drop down to street level presented itself almost too suddenly frontside 180. Boom. Priceless.
