Cleveland's Rally Possum is the hero you didn't know you needed

Welcome to Critter Junction. This morning on "What's Trending" Daybreak's Kate Welshofer opened with a raccoon roundup and finished with what may just be the best story of the year about a possum.

It's been a long week but at least I can say this didn't happen to me.

In Florida, a woman woke up to a masked intruder clinging to the top of her bathroom mirror.

The raccoon seemed as surprised as anyone..

The woman called the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office and one of the deputies went ahead and got a selfie before showing the animal the door. The Sheriff's department posted the whole thing on their Facebook page.

So, if your day is starting without a raccoon in your bathroom--let's put that in the positive column.

I did not call this a raccoon roundup for nothing.

In Toronto a woman was going to bed when she heard noises in the kitchen. Three raccoons had broken in just to eat her bread. They did while looking her right in the eye.

There's something eerily relatable about this entire scenario. I'm not saying I'd break into your home and stare you down while I eat your bread.

Actually, no. That's exactly what I'm saying.

You've been warned

Finally, I hope you stuck with me through all that raccoon stuff because I really saved the best for last.

This may be the story of the year.

Behold! The Rally Possum!

A Cleveland Brown's fan caught a possum in the seats at the stadium before the game. He wasn't even in the cheap seats. You might think that would be the most exciting thing to happen at a Brown's game but then the long-suffering team team went on to win for the first time in 634 days.

The Internet is loving Cleveland this morning for everything happening here.

And many are saying the team should hang on to the possum--that it might just be their lucky charm!
