Florida police were called to break up a bizarre tug-of-war that broke out between several middle school children and a 10-foot alligator, witnesses said.

Observers said the small group of children in Harbordale tied a raw chicken to the end of a large rope Tuesday to attract the attention of an alligator swimming in a canal.

What a fowl crock. Has common sense flown the coup for these small fry yokels? Were they looking for something to broast about? Sure they have pluck but I'm laying odds this brood is cracked.

Is this any dumber than things we did as kids? In the winter time I use to hang onto the rear bumper of the school bus as it was driving away.
