We found this big boy in our downstairs storage closet, I'm no expert by any means, but after some research it looks like it may of been a dock spider? Anyways, got the best picture I could manage. It had to of been 3-4 inches across.

This is a wolf spider in the family Lycosidae. These are close relatives to dock/fishing spiders (family Pisauridae), and like them, are not dangerous to humans.
