When I was a kid, I put a huge, hairy, fake spider under my mom's dinner
napkin on April 1st. She was NOT happy with me.

When I was a kid you could ask the grocer for a tarantula. They came
in with the bananas. Now they are about 25 bucks at the pet shop.

Tarabntula?? Thise were banana spiders...they have a very nasty
bite...we kept our guinea pigs in banana boxex (took them a while to
chew through) and sometimesx banana spiders would be under the
flaps...nasty nasty nasty...

I looked it up and banana spiders are huge, but not black or hairy.
Tarantulas do not have a dangerous bite, while the banana spider can
kill you.

them...never had a tarantula crawl out of them...
