While sports fishing off the Florida coast, a tourist capsizedhis boat. He could swim, but his fear of alligators kept himclinging to the overturned craft. Spotting an old beach-
comber standing on the shore, the tourist shouted,
“Are there any gators around here?!”
“Naw,” the man hollered back,
“they ain’t been around for years!”
“Feeling safe, the tourist started swimming leisurelytoward the shore. When he was almost there heasked the guy,”How’d you get rid of the gators?”
“We didn’t do nothin’,” the beachcomber said.
“The sharks got ‘em.”
