Man uses alligator as part of gender reveal
When Mike Kliebert and his girlfriend tried to think of a new way to announce the sex of their expected child at a gender reveal party, only one thing came to mind: alligators. Kliebert, the owner of Kliebert Turtle and Alligator Farm in Hammond, Louisiana, also goes by the name “T-Mike,” the Gator King, according to Huffington Post. As an experienced alligator wrangler, Kliebert wasn’t afraid at all when he threw a watermelon into the mouth of Sally the alligator and watched blue Jell-O explode from inside.
“What better way to do it than having an alligator that is 61 years old that my grandfather hatched in 1957?” Kliebert told Huffington Post.

He was arrested and apologized when put on camera.

Arrowsmith said it was “absolutely hilarious.”
