| How Many Rats Are In Pennsylvania |
The Numbers Are In (and They Might Scare You)
Here's the thing: nobody knows for sure exactly how many rats are lurking in the shadows of the Keystone State. But some estimates suggest there could be close to 10 million scurrying around. 10 MILLION! That's enough rats to fill Heinz Field... twice! Maybe that explains the occasional mysterious turnover during Steeler games.
Is This a Conspiracy by Big Rat?
Look, we're not pointing fingers (well, maybe at some trash cans), but let's face it, the whole situation is a bit fishy. Are rats secretly breeding in underground pizza parlors? Is there a hidden rodent metropolis beneath the Liberty Bell? The truth is out there, folks, and we may never know.
So, Should You Be Running for the Hills (or the Jersey Shore)?
Probably not. Most of these furry fellows are likely chilling in sewers and avoiding us humans like the plague (which, ironically, they can actually carry). But hey, a little healthy awareness never hurt anyone. Just be sure to keep your house clean, seal up any cracks, and maybe avoid that questionable slice of pizza you found under the couch.
