Florida Man at it again
Assault with a deadly weapon: Florida man charged with throwing alligator into Wendy’sA Florida man accused of throwing a live alligator through a drive-through window has been arrested, authorities say.
Joshua James, of Jupiter, Fla., faces three charges, according to Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office records: Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon; a charge related to the illegal killing, capture or possession of an alligator; and petty theft.
James, 24, is accused of throwing a 3 1/2-foot alligator through a Wendy’s drive-through window in October, according to a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission incident report cited by NBC affiliate WPTV. He was taken into custody and booked into the Palm Beach County Detention Center on Monday.
Officials say James pulled up to receive his order, was handed a drink, then pulled the alligator out of the back of his truck and tossed it into the restaurant after the drive-through attendant had turned around, according to WPTV.
The state agency’s report featured a picture of the alligator, flat with its legs splayed on the fast food restaurant’s brown-tile floor.
Investigators used surveillance video and a receipt to find James, who admitted to picking up the animal on the side of a road and bringing it to the restaurant.
His parents described James as an outdoorsman and harmless prankster, adding that he viewed famous crocodile hunter and conservationist Steve Irwin as an idol, WPTV reported.
Ed and Linda James told the station that their son was pranking a Wendy’s employee that he knew.

Ah the Florida man.....never let's us down.

.... how did he manage to get a live animal through a space (presumably) that small, that quickly?
Here we have our Q-PW1, PW-2 Pass-Thru Window-
You will note the dimensions are perfect for alligators up to on average 4.5-5' in length-
Service Opening (PW-1): 14" (w) x 18 3/8" (h)
Service Opening (PW-2): 14" (w) x 24 3/8" (h)
Offering a panoramic three-sided view, Models PW-1 and PW-2 are projected from the exterior of the building highlighting the drive-thru lane. These two models offer different size service openings: however they are both standard with a 21”(d) x 27 3/4" (w) interior stainless base. Our patented push-bar mechanism allows hands-free operation providing more efficient service.
Second, perhaps Wendy's should start serving Snickers.
Actually does taste kind of like chicken. 
Funny story: the day after I had some in the French Quarter, Mom and I went uptown to the Audubon Zoo, where, of course, there are plenty of gators. She swore they were giving me the stink eye!
... I looked all over for some Rocky Mountain Oysters to send him but no luck, darnit.
