Shermco brings The Texas Snake Man to SMRP MaRS 2012 Conference

Aug. 20, 2012 - PRLog -- DALLAS – You may have seen snakes in the woods or at the zoo, or even “Snakes on a Plane,” but until you have seen legendary snake handler Jackie Bibby perform up close and personal, you haven’t lived. The SMRP MaRS 2012 Conference scheduled for August 23 and 24, 2012 at Moody Gardens in Galveston, Texas and on Thursday, August 23, attendees of this 6th Annual Symposium will have a chance to see one of the world’s most unique performers at the Shermco hospitality suite from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m.

Bibby’s renowned and record-setting snake performances have been featured on many nationally televised programs, including “The Tonight Show” and “Ripley’s Believe it or Not.” His most daring stunts include dangling multiple snakes from his mouth and submerging himself in a tub of snakes.

“Jackie is a one-of-a-kind entertainer and we are excited to bring his performance to those attending this SMRP MaRS conference,” said Scott Meador, vice president of business development for Shermco Industries. “Although most of us in maintenance and reliability professions can relate to working at a hazardous job day in and day out, it’s certainly not like zipping yourself up in a sleeping bag with 150 rattlesnakes. This will be a fun time.”

Attendees of the hospitality suite will also enjoy complementary food, an open bar and door prizes given away throughout the night.
