Portal Pocket

Last night, I was at the grocery store. I pulled out my cell phone to see what time it was, because the two highest priorities for my cell phone are to tell time and to operate as a flashlight when my roommate is asleep.
I returned the phone to my pocket.
Shortly thereafter, I felt something moving down my leg, inside of my pants. My immediate, panicky thought was that a snake had gotten into my pants, followed by the realization that this idea made no sense.
My phone fell out of my pant leg. Several other shoppers and I stared at it, all of us, I think, amicably surprised.
I checked for a hole in my pocket, and there isn't one. It really doesn't make sense that I would have stuck it in the waistband of my pants, because I was definitely aiming for my pocket and it is not in the immediate area of my waistband.
The only remaining option is that my pocket is a portal. I just wish it went somewhere cooler.
