It sounds like the beginning of a joke, but a guy walked into a Miami-area convenience store with quite a surprise in the box.
A clerk at the Santa Ana Market in Allapattah was approached by customer Fernando Caignet Aguilera, 64, to buy some beer recently.
I just picked it up here, Aguilera said of the alligator. I seen it here in the grass and I tied it up.
When the subject of payment was brought up, the customer offered up a live alligator.
I went into the store to try to exchange it for a beer, Aguilera told CBS4′s Marybel Rodriguez.
Aguilera continued, In my mind, I was trying to get some beer because I didnt have no money. So I said, let me try the alligator.
Yes, a live alligator in a cardboard box.

Sounds like a fair trade to me.

One night in Texas, I had to trade my monkey for a tank of gas.
That isn’t a joke.

A salesman is driving toward home when he sees an Indian thumbing for a ride on the side of the road.
As the trip had been long and quiet, he stops the car and the Indian gets in.
After a bit of small talk, the Indian notices a brown bag on the front seat. “What’s in bag?”, the Indian asks the driver.
The driver says, “It’s a bottle of wine. I got it for my wife.”
The Indian is silent for a moment then says, “Good trade.”

I wanted a Corona, because if he brings me a Natural Light or something like that I dont want it. I want a Corona, because the alligator is so beautiful."

I don’t remember the type, but I don’t think it was the most common one of the time.

Although that isn’t a Chimpanzee, it does remind me of a night that I baby sat for one at my house, their physical power can be a little scary when you see it in your own home and it acting like an upset child as you try to calm his behavior.
I just saw my tagline, it was a remnant from another post on the libertarian party, thanks for the heads up.
