Subject: Is this a hoax? Its scaring me

Hi, I love your website. I think its wonderful that you do this. I
always check this type of e-mail but I can't find anything to confirm or
disprove this one, and since I have a small child myself I find it quite
worrying

my e-mail address is k_binns@hotmail.com

>>> About a week or so ago, a mother took her eager 3 year old son to 
Burger
>>> King for lunch.  After they ate their lunch the mother said that the

son
>could go
>>> and playon the playground for awhile since he ate all his lunch. She
>watched
>>> as the boy played in the tunnels, slide and in the ball-pit. The boy
>played for
>>> about 10 minutes when he started to whimper slightly.  The mother 
asks
>the
>>> boy what had happened and he mearly replied, "Hurt mommy."  The 
mother
>>> assumed that the little boy had  banged his elbow or something while
>>> playing. They left to return home.  A half and hour after they were 
home,
>>> the mother noticed some big red welts on the little boys arms and 
legs.
>>> Not being able to figure out what they were, the  mother started to

look
>>> at them closer.  Could be red ant bites...she did not know. An hour
>later,
>>> the little boy died.
>>> Come to find out, when returning to Burger King to see if there were

red
>>> ants in the play area,  in case the little boy had an allergic 
reaction.
>>> Burger King employees and herself discovered that there was a family

of
>>> baby rattlesnakes living underneath
>>> the balls in the ball-pit area.  She has since found out that this
>happens
>>> more frequently than not.   The snakes will crawl into the ball pit
>>> because it is dark and warm in there.
>>> She knows for a fact that another death has occurred because of this

in
>>> South Carolina.  Please use caution when letting any children play 
in an
>>> outside play area of a fast food restaurant, this could happen 
anywhere.
>>> Burger Kings are now building their play area's inside the buildings

for
>a
>>> safer environment.
