Poem

Curled and coiled and ready to playHe waits for you patiently every dayHe'll keep his best friend, but not his skinAnd stay with you through thick and thin!
From the Ty swing tag

About Hissy the Snake

Hissy is the coiled snake, made so that he holds his coil on his own.

He is one of the Beanie Babies found with a Chinese factory stamp inside some tush tags, and number 442 has been seen on his. One oddity is on record, a Hissy whose back is half black and half blue.

The Arizona Diamondbacks handed out 6,500 Hissys at their game against the St. Louis Cardinals on 14 June 1998.
