Our Reading

The routine arrives with confidence.

When you’re trying to outrun the law, it’s best not to take a detour through gator country. Victor Rivas learned this the hard way. He fled into a swamp and became an alligator’s mid-morning snack. Who needs a field sobriety test when you can just swim with the gators?

The habit gets a new name: “Swamp Sprinting.” The lifestyle enters the chat: “Gator Country, population: you.”

Original observation: Running from the law is hard, but running from an alligator is harder.
