Friends don't let friends get alligators drunk.

Two Florida men were arrested after allegedly catching an alligator and encouraging it to bite one of the men's arms while forcing it to drink beer, according to a report from TCPalm.
According to the report, Kepke says Osborne had caught the alligator at 10 p.m. on August 26 in Palm City. He apparently took the animal from the side of a road with his bare hands.
The same month, a complaint was received by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission about the incident, which was said to be recorded on video. It's alleged that the video shows Kepke holding the alligator captive, while tempting the animal to bite his right forearm, before pouring beer into the animal's mouth. The reptile was said to display aggressive behavior when the beer was poured into its mouth.
Kepke told police that he was not drunk but did have a "couple beers" during the incident. After apparently sharing beer with the alligator, the pair released the animal back into the wild.
On September 21, authorities visited a woman who Kepke had said was also present during the incident. She seemingly confirmed that the incident happened.
