CHANDLER, AZ -- A teacher got an unwanted side dish with his McDonald's breakfast on Friday morning.

Inside the bag with his Egg McMuffin, he said he found a scorpion.

"I went to get a napkin and I saw the scorpion just sitting on the side," said teacher Jeff Tallman.

It wasn't just any scorpion -- it was a baby scorpion, which is even more venomous than it's adult counterpart.

"We wanted to stay away from it. So, I stapled the bag up -- saved it as evidence I guess," said Mackenzie Handel, one of Tallman's students.

Handel said he went to pick up the Egg McMuffins for himself and the teacher from the McDonald's at Arizona Avenue and Ray Road.

"Oh, it freaked me out! I was like scared, 'cause I don't like those things," said Handel.

Tallman said he was a little scared too, but the fact that the scorpion showed up in his class was somewhat fitting. Tallman is the science teacher at Chandler High School.

A manager at the McDonald's store in question said he's never seen a scorpion at his restaurant and points out the bug may have hitched a ride in Handel's car.

But the manager also said he's willing to pay for the cost of the Egg McMuffins, or replace them.

Is he sure one of his students didn't do it as a joke?

I guess you could say that was an "Unhappy Meal".

Seriously though, if the scorpion poisoned the schoolteacher, that Mcdonald's might have had a lawsuit on his hands.

I agree I think maybe the scorpion could have got in the car.
