Samuel L. Jackson had to deal with snakes on To Be Twenty (Avere vent’anni)a plane but for the 125 passengers on a recent American Airlines flight it was a different type of issue.

A flight from Sacramento to Chicago was grounded on Sunday after a scorpion managed to sneak onboard according to the SF Gate. Surely the little thing just wanted to experience the Windy City, maybe take in a Cubs game, but the passengers on board weren't really too keen on sharing their cabin with the likes of something poisonous.

We're sure the reactions were very calm and orderly as the flight crew decided whether to take off or not.

The eight-legged creature is believed to have slipped onto the plane the night before during a stop in Phoenix, Arizona. Probably couldn't take the heat.

The passengers had their flights rebooked and the Boeing 737 plane was sent to a maintenance facility in Dallas-Fort Worth Airport in Texas to be fumigated. If Samuel L. Jackson was searching for some ideas for a sequel he may have just found it.
