Alligator 86’d from Florida bar

In what sounds like the setup to a joke, an alligator wandered into a Florida bar.

Instead of the bartender asking, “Why the long snout?” the Stuart Police Department was called to address the situation.

“Stuart Police Officers arrived and promptly took the scaly suspect into ‘custody’ without incident,” the Stuart PD writes in a Facebook post. “No injuries to the gator or any humans, just one wild story and a few surprised bar-goers.

“The party-seeking reptile has since been relocated to a more suitable venue, where the only cocktails are in the swamp and the sun never sets on happy hour,” the post continues.

Maybe the toothy guy was just confused by all the Florida Gator flags.
