3. When I was there in '91, one of them bit a friend

Edited on Wed Aug-31-05 05:06 PM by nytemare

She had about a 3/4 inch little hole in her foot. They supposedly inject a numbing agent, and eat away, but I hear that might be urban legend. She had to put a big bandage around her foot.

Ick.

7. Yep. Big spiders, but some urban legend involved, as well.

11. Yeah, I was reading that.

She sure did have a big hole in her foot, and she saw the spider. She probably just didn't notice it bit her or something.
