Congrats to @MADDAWG_G and best of luck with the Florida Gators! #babygatorswag #unstoppable pic.twitter.com/Jpnmdj5AjN
— CoolCrittersOutreach (@CoolCritters) July 25, 2014 Apparently Cool Critters fudged a bit, and that wasn’t actually an alligator; rather, it was a dwarf caiman. But dwarf caimans are still part of the alligator family, according to Wikipedia, so we’ll count it.
But Cool Critters doesn’t just specialize in dwarf caimans. In fact, there are several college football-related animal opportunities at Cool Critters, judging by their website:
- There’s a cat named Mr. Bojangles #goacc.
- There are bearded dragons for prospective UAB commits.
- There are turtles for prospective Maryland commits.
- And (possibly?) a big alligator for the next Florida commit who wants to upstage this commitment.
Usually it costs $75 an hour to rent these animals, but Cool Critters was so impressed with the amount of #babygatorswag in this plan that they gave Brown the animal for free:
@RagjUF That is typically the fee HOWEVER we are proud of @MADDAWG_G & wish him the best. That one was on us :) #babygatorswag
— CoolCrittersOutreach (@CoolCritters) July 25, 2014 That better not be a violation, NCAA. Depriving us of future exotic baby animal commitments? That’s just crossing the line.
