I get back to my place at about 1 in the morning, and am getting out of the car, and I think I see some small animal running around near the front door of the duplex. I assume it's the neighbor's cat, so I just walk on up assuming he'll run off as he normally does. I get up closer, I see this thing with a white face and beady eyes turn towards me, bare its teeth and start running at me. :wow: I literally yell, "what in the ****?" and try to sidestep it, and it screams past and off into the darkness. I figured these things attempt to play dead, but this bastard ran right at me. That's what I get for living in a place where there's a forest preserve right behind us. :cmad:

Whatever, man. I don't know the names of all these country ass am-i-nals.

owned.:cwink:
 
When I was younger I was at this friends house who lived kind of in the woods. :yay: It was night and I thought it would be cool to sneak around to the living room window and peek in at him. :o It was, until I happened to hear some rustling in the leaves and when I looked down, these beady pink eyes were staring up at me. I was so freaking terrified. :eek: Luckily, it didn't chase me. Or, I don't know, maybe it did but I'm sure I set some sort of land speed record getting out of there. I'm sure it was a possum.
 
This reminds of the time I was attacked by a raccoon that was up in a tree of all places. Freaky.
 
The other day I'm crossing some railroad tracks and two deer jump out down the street. These mother****ers are getting way too close to civilization.
 
So it didn't bite you......right?
 
You should borrow my dogs for a while. They're killed 3 oppposums in my back yard within the span of a month or so.

Badasses.
 
You would think opossums would talk to each other about your dogs and not go in your backyard.......

They look full and happy...lol

The weird part is, they don't even eat them. They just kill them and then my dad has to bag them up and put them in someone else's trashcan so it doesn't stink up our house.

That means you feed them good...
 
I saw the title of this thread and thought, "Oh man, GR87 or Superhobo has another goofy story about some weirded out event"...then I saw it was from Terry and thought, "WTF mate?".
 
When you don't live in NY or L.A., weird ass animal stories are common place, brah.

Sounds more like Conan O'Brien than an opposum.
 
Lol, god I wish there was video of this encounter. :woot:
 
I'd need a serious drink afterwards if this happened to me.


aw...who am I kidding? I need a serious drink right now.
 
That would've been a nasty bite if he got a hold of Terry. :csad:
