Yes, we tried fried alligator on a stick. No, I don't think we'll do so again.
Festival attendees watch as a nearly 13-foot-long alligator captured on a private lake by Larry Janik of El Campo weighs in at 508 pounds during the annual Texas Gatorfest at Fort Anahuac Park in Anahuac on Saturday, Sept. 17, 2005. The festival offers cash prizes to hunters for the largest alligators captured during the event. The 20-day alligator hunting season in Texas began Sept. 10.

That dead gator must have made you a little happier. :-)
You're right. I'm not a gator fan. They aren't honorable creatures.
