I want to know what kind of kid thinks "hey, I'm going to climb over this fence and poke an alligator with a stick and throw rocks at it" is a good idea?
And there were 3 of them! Although I'll bet the other two won't do it again after watching their friend get dragged into the water and eaten alive.

How many times have I awoke to "what the hell was I thinking"....... Although I do admit that at 15, they probably had not been drinking.....

I have done similar things as part of a multi crew--- normally starts with--"I'll bet'ya dollar".........
