I guess you watch swamp people too huh? gator hunters in bayou, LA. great show. nice catch- yeah by the show you have to be quick to save the meat and supposedly gator meat is Awesome but even the gator meat lovers, gator hunters, and fat old guys will Not eat the fat. I guess the fat is so bad if gator is cooked wrong the person never will eat it again. gator bites kick ass as an appetizer I know that. I want to go gator huntin ASAP!!!
