http://www.wcnc.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/02/09/florida-man-alligator-drive-thru-wendys/80044586/
Have you ever seen a flying alligator?
A worker at a Wendy's drive-thru did when a customer allegedly threw a 3-and-a-half-foot alligator into the window at restaurant in Florida, according to an incident report, WPTV reported.
Joshua James, 23, of Jupiter, allegedly pulled up to the drive-thru window for his order, got a drink from the employee, and then threw the alligator into the restaurant, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission told the station.
James is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, illegally killing, possessing or capturing an alligator, and second-degree larceny petit theft, according to the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office.
The incident occurred at a restaurant east of Loxahatchee, Fla., in October, but James was arrested by U.S. Marshals this week, WPTV reported.

They were afraid the gator was going to toss Florida Man through the window. Whew!

Any self-respecting restaurant down there would have had a special on alligator sauce piquant, which does, in fact, taste sort of like chicken. The day after I had it in the French Quarter, Mom and I went uptown to the Audubon Zoo, which, of course, has many gators. She swore they were giving me the stink-eye!
