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.

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.

And here’s video of it taking a swim:

And Twitter of course had to chime in:

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

That’s Florida for you.
