I think I remember Ocala woman some years ago burning up the oldest tree in Florida because she was smoking meth inside of it.

That’s a real Florida man.
The Yankee substance abusers who move down for the winter so they don’t get frostbite after passing out make Florida man look bad.
Real Florida man keeps a gator at the ready for unmotivated service workers.

Need background checks on people before they can buy a chainsaw.

Damn, I think that’s about the fourth Florida Man Post or news I read today, and I just moved here in July. At least two stories were in the Ocala area. Lets see, there is the guy that was arrested in one store with a machete, another one tossed an alligator through a drive thru window, and this one, and don’t quite remember the other...
