Swimming with Gators
Apparently it is illegal to swim naked with alligators. Who knew? Well this guy should have known, since he’s been accused of it more than once.

Gator madness
It seems like lately there’s been a bizarre wave of gator hijinks. First, police pulled over a Texas man with a 6-foot alligator in his back seat. Imagine driving down the highway and noticing this:
Then, five kids were arrested for trying to steal a gator. I’m not a reptile owner, but I’m guessing that taking an alligator anywhere it doesn’t want to go is a bad idea. Everyone’s mad – the police and the reptile.
Long story short, let sleeping gators lie.
