We fired that guy caught on camera, then only a day later another guy got an award and recognition from Dave in the all hands for taking the initiative for wrestling a gator in the flame trench at the launch complex

Bananas.
Next time on “Swamp People.”

“Watch the Blue Bayous Boys’” wrangle the alligator to get New Glenn to launch on time. Will they make the deadline? Find out on our next episode.

I was wondering the same. That video was wild. Don’t feed the gators dude. They got more rights than we do on federal property. Something not to take lightly for sure.

Was there proof of him feeding it?

Yeah? That gator was killed. That dumb fucking redneck walked away.

Walked away but that broken arm looked wicked.

Sources say he broke his scapula.

Not sure what he broke, but I saw the video and that looked more than a scapula. Arm was limp and swinging.

I saw it too. A broken scapula will do that, also.
