catch it by placing a bucket over it and sliping some paper underneath, support the paper with your hand and put it outside then removethe bucket and run like hell. Respect spiders, they're one of the most amazing things on this planet.

Well I voted kill it but chances are I would be startled but if it were as big as you say I would stare at it make my way to the door out of my room shut door then run like hell to the phone call animal control. Let the people whose job is to deal with this crud sort it out.
Size of a football? Fuck that, I'd gtfo as fast as possible.
I don't care if its poisonous or not, if its even as big as my hand I'd get out of there, spiders just freak me out.

Would the difference in size between an American football and a regular football be that important here? That's like asking if the killer robot was 80 yards tall or 80 metres tall. In either case, it's waaaay too big.Canid117 said:
PS. Kill it. Science has proven that spiders are evil, and hate all human life. Science.

If it's the size of a football, I'd either run or kill it if there was something large enough to kill it with.
In Australia, we let our pet crocodiles deal with spiders that size daily.
Kidding, actually. I'd "NOPE! NOPE! NOPE!" while running to the nearest club-like object and beat that thing into juice with twitching legs. Fuck the room's state, IT'S A FOOTBALL SPIDER.

Oh my gosh. I love spiders. They are adorable with their beady, black eyes and compactness, but... FOOTBALL SIZED? I would probably faint. I saw a normal WOLF SPIDER and I almost jumped out of my seat. Wolf spiders are pretty small, too. I can only handle bugs and spiders If they are small and in few numbers, If they're tiny and swarming me, or bigger than a fat quarter, I freak out (not very much though, I'm pretty level when it comes to bugs). Now, if I have such a reaction with a small-ish spider, I would pretty much die of fright. But other than that, if there's more than one of them, I welcome our new spider overlords (I reckon something that big that can get into our house without making a significant impact should be smart enough to rule the entire human race by next week. Expecially if it's that big of a spider.
Oh wow that's a pretty long post.

Non-serious: Orbital death laser.
Serious: As an arachnophobe who, upon seeing a small spider which I know to be harmless would still feel as though someone is doing nails on a chalkboard in my head, I would leg it. I would probably jump out of my seat, hit my desk, get up and on my way out forget to open the door. After rebounding off of it, I would finally remember the mechanics of a doorknob after one or two frantic seconds and get out. Then I would spend the rest of my time trying to figure out how the hell I'm going to get it out of there.

Kill it and kill it good. also my dog would probably have it. then sit in a corner with a blanket over my head, stroking my dog muttering "that ain't normal man... they shouldn't be that big. not here anyways."
this also reminds me of an Oglaf comic strip.

I'd be running for the god damn hills. I think I'd call the zoo to retrieve it then ask them to check the entire house. I don't want another turning up.

Grab my dagger and Stab it repeatedly while cutting off its legs like a psycho just to make sure it doesn't squirm too much then stomp on the body over and over until its entrails fuses with the carpet and I'm sure that it is no more.
I love science as much as the next person, but if a specimen such as that presents itself before me, then I say "SCREW THE RULES! I HATE SPIDERS!!"
Huge and toxic blue? I'd run like hell and call animal control. I am not fond of any size of spider, but something so immense and brightly coloured is most definitely dangerous.
Don't think I'd enter my home again any time soon either, until animal control declares it safe again.
The largest spider I've had the misfortune of finding in my home was a freaking huge wolf spider, and compared to other spiders that one is harmless...

None of the above. I'd just ignore it. All the spiders where I live are small, harmless, and pretty cowardly (they skitter away if you try to catch / kill them)
