While sports fishing off the Florida coast in Key West, a tourist capsized his boat…
He could swim, but his fear of alligators kept him clinging to the overturned craft.
Spotting an old beachcomber walking along the shore, the tourist shouted, “Would there, by chance, be any alligators in these waters?”
“No need to worry about that mister,” the old man hollered back, “haven’t been any alligators around here in years!”
Feeling relieved, the tourist began swimming leisurely toward the shore…
About halfway toward shore, he asked the old man, “Say, how’d you get rid of the gators, anyway?”
“We didn’t do anything,” the old man said…
“The sharks got them.”
