What's new

Anyone see on the NEWS

Was just asking because it was total BS. Won't make any sense unless someone saw it though .. so, nm.
 
Anyway, the place on the news is called "Robbies" and it's in Islamorada, FL (Florida Keys). I used to live about 500 yards from Robbie's and it's a place that has, for 20 years or so, sold a bucket of small fish so tourists can feed the huge tarpon that swarm the docks because they've been fed there for so many years. What was on the news happens there every day and people intentionally do it (tarpon don't have teeth, that matter). The guy on the news acted like it was some big surprise but, when the tarpon grabbed his right hand, the guy (with his left) grabbed the fish by the gills and forced it farther onto his arm and then he stuck his hand through the grill and pretended to have his arm 'trapped' by the tarpon.

I know this totally TULT, but couldn't help but mention.

I was swimming with those tarpons in grand cayman and i would grab ahold of them and they would pull me along through the water..... they are as tame as can be
