Jake Roberts shares a wild story about saving an alligator.
While speaking on The Snake Pit, Jake Roberts talked about yet another bizarre story. He was traveling in a Plymouth station wagon with other wrestlers when someone hit an alligator with their vehicle. Rather than leaving the injured animal to its fate, Roberts and the other wrestlers took it upon themselves to try to help the alligator.
“We back up and get out and make sure it’s dead, and throw it in the back of that fing car. We were just going to take him home man, it’s like a seven or eight-foot alligator or something,” he said. “There was room for it right there, you can reach over the seat and pat him and everything.” Despite the fact that they thought the alligator was dead, that wasn’t quite true, as they heard the large reptile make a noise, which is not an ideal situation when you’re tapped inside a car with it. “All of a sudden we hear it, that mother*** wasn’t quite dead, no he was coming back,” Roberts said. “So we had to go ahead and kill it, man.”
