Golfer loses arm to alligator

That put's my saga with the flying ants into perspective.

Whole new perspective to Gator Golf

I see they removed his arm from the gators stomach in the hope of re-attaching it. Nice.

Having played a bit in FL, I have always wondered how dangerous they really are. Clearly the answer is they are dangerous enough. I have nearly trodden on one several times. They always look a bit dopey. I won't be sticking my arm (or any other bit of me) in a pond again.

2 questions...

Did he get his ball back and... what's the penalty*?

*asides from losing an arm!

I am guessing here that the wimp N/R'ed.

Hope they got the right Gator, nothing more frustrating then having two left or right hands and one of them a different colour.

70 years old, eaten by a croc and he still won't die!! That man is invincible!

 

[Bunkers]

Did he finish the round or conceed the tie?

Did he finish the round or conceed the tie?

Nah, just threw his hand in!!!

I would insist on a smart new pair of shoes and a belt from the gators skin after they retreived the arm. Although they may need to be velcro fastening!!!!

That’s shocking, he never finished the round.

Next you'll be saying it's all armless fun.

reminds me of Happy Gilmore when he gets his ball back from the 'gator.
