While I’m writing this it is snowing outside, in another sick joke that Mother Nature is playing on us during what’s supposed to be Spring. But if it was hot outside, I would try to find myself a pool to take a dip in. Well, as long as there isn’t a giant alligator in it.
According to the NY Post, a family walked out to their backyard to find an alligator hanging out in their pool. The proof is in the photo. Here it is thanks to the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office:
Yep, not exactly the best pool buddy to play Marco Polo with.
The sheriff’s office says that the gator was about 11 feet long. But don’t worry, alligator lovers. The gator was removed.
Just no. #TweetFromTheBeat #LESM #AllInADaysWork pic.twitter.com/ktSI6Zdwmg

And here’s video of it taking a swim:
So, remember that #gator call we went on earlier? Here’s some video as the trapper pulled him from the swimming pool. Did we mention he measured 11 feet long?! #TweetFromTheBeat #NeverADullMoment #OnlyInFlorida pic.twitter.com/s3DtK3xzPR

Um…A Fish Tank Is Not The Best Place For A 3-Foot Alligator To Be
