Mike Leach tells a curious tale of how he once stalked a raccoon in the snow

NCAA Football: Stanford at Washington State

Washington State football head coach Mike Leach marches to the beat of a different drummer compared to well, everyone.

Leach once delivered a hilarious take about putting up with the bride’s family during weddings, and he produced another gem in speaking to reporters on Thursday.

The quirky coach told a tale about how he once tracked a raccoon, in the snow, just because he was curious.

“Tracked a raccoon one time in the snow,” he said. “I was in the neighborhood and I was just curious where this raccoon lived. There’s some fresh raccoon tracks. He’d been digging at somebody’s garbage. So I followed the tracks, and I don’t even know if these people know it, but he lives right in the back of their house.”

The funniest thing is that Leach added he tracked the raccoon for a half-mile. We’ve all been there, right? [Crickets]
