There’s a triathlon in California called Escape from Alcatraz. I’ve never done it and probably never will… but I thought of a new race. It’s called Escape from Alligator Alcatraz! Not a triathlon. Kind of a swim. Maybe a run if there’s any dry land? It’s more like a Spartan race and the movie Gladiator and the Nature Channel all in one. Whoever survives wins.
Alligators are nothing to underestimate in the everglades, obviously. But how about the pythons, rattle snakes, and moccasins? I think I’d be happy to see an alligator because if I see it, I have a chance. If you see a snake, you’re already dead.
