A young blonde woman was driving through the Florida Everglades while on
vacation. She wanted to take home a pair of genuine alligator shoes in the
worst way, but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local vendors
were asking.
After becoming very frustrated with the attitude of one of the
shopkeepers, the young blonde declared, "Well then, maybe I'll just go out
and catch my own alligator and get a pair of shoes for free!"
The shopkeeper said with a sly smile, "Well little lady, why
don't you go on and give it a try?" The blonde headed off to the swamp,
determined to catch an alligator.
Later in the day, as the shopkeeper is driving home, he spots
the same young woman standing waist deep in the murky water, shotgun in
hand. As he brings his car to a stop, he sees a huge 9-foot gator swimming
rapidly toward her. With lightning reflexes, the blonde takes aim, shoots
the creature and hauls it up onto the slippery bank.
Nearby were seven more dead gators, all lying belly up. The shopkeeper stood
on the bank, watching in silent amazement.
The blonde struggles mightily and manages to flip the gator onto its back.
Rolling her eyes heavenward, she screams in frustration, "s**t! THIS ONE'S
BAREFOOT TOO !!"
