Rattlers
Arena football team
Rattlers is an informal term for rattlesnakes—venomous pit vipers with segmented tail tips that produce a distinctive warning sound when vibrated.
The word also names sports teams, most notably minor league baseball and arena football franchises.
In casual speech, rattlers can refer to old vehicles or machinery that shake and clatter: That old truck's a real rattler.
