      If I had to guess, it was a combination of imprecise steering controls and the fact that gators don’t take orders well.

    Like a bear riding a bicycle, it doesn’t matter if it’s done well: the impressive part is seeing it done at all

    Never expected to feel sorry for an alligator, but there’s a first time for everything.
