Dwayner Posted September 16, 2002 Posted September 16, 2002 Went to Ringling Bro's/B.B. Circus on Saturday. I saw a guy so cool that for just one shameful moment, I felt like trading in Big Lou as my alpine role model. His name is T.M. the Gator Guy. This maniac came riding in on a chariot being towed by a very expensive motorcycle that actually looked like a metallic alligator!!! Than he removed alligators from wooden boxes and placed them in such a manner they would frighten selected members of the audience. And then he ran around with a gigantic snake before taking on a jumbo-gator in the center ring. (It was so big that it took several people to lift him). THEN THE GUY STUCK HIS HEAD IN THE ALLIGATOR'S MOUTH!!!! Check this out: O.K., the picture above doesn't show his head in the lizard's mouth, but trust me, he actually does it. This guy rocks! Tell me that this isn't more dangerous than climbing Rainier 185 times....he does this stunt maybe three times a day! The circus moved on, T.M. is in some other faceless town thrilling another huge crowd....but come to think of it...I think I saw Big Lou in the audience at the Tacoma Dome....hunched down, and taking notes. - Dwayner Quote

Dru Posted September 16, 2002 Posted September 16, 2002 that is a pussy stunt compared to stuff the crocodile hunter does with non-drugged animals Steve Irwin is what big lou wants to be. CRIKEY! PNW could have the Snafflehound Hunter Quote
Dwayner Posted September 16, 2002 Author Posted September 16, 2002 Right on, Petey Puget! Your picture shows the dude in action! Looks like you saw the show too. By the way, Ringling Bros. doesn't drug their animals. They're under enough heat as it is by the animal liberators to even think about that kind of stuff. Alligators are freaky creatures...T.M. obviously knows how to handle these guys! Crocodile Hunter....he's turned soft since he got married. - Dwayner Quote
