Alligator sightings are a common thing if you live in the south, but a wave of the monstrous creatures made their presence felt over the final weekend in April. Several residents in Florida and Texas were sent into a panic as large gators stopped traffic, invaded porches, and even approached a Target store over the weekend.
The alligator invasion started in Florida on April 28, when an “aggressive” 11-foot reptile made its way onto the front porch of home in The Villages near Orlando. “The minute that it seen a person it immediately, you now, started to hiss and come toward the person and as I walked over closer to it, it wanted to bite me,” Al Roberts of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) said, via WKMG.

Reporting safely from Denver. LOL! The Villages? Probably wanted to borrow a golf cart. Target store? Just lookin' for a trans-reptile toilet facility. Sounds like they need to cull some gators who were saved from near extinction (ahem!) not that long ago. Well, I can tell you that in FL or LA, if there's water, there could be gators. There were thousands of them out on KSC property and they seem to know they are safe there. You can tell by there toothy smiles.

But when it saw the grocery prices, it went to WalMart like everyone else.

The first sentence is ignorant:
“Alligator sightings are a common thing if you live in the south”

The Villages is near Orlando? More like Summerfield or Wildwood or Leesburg, but Mount Dora is closer to Orlando....
