So this is about the freakiest thing ever. Lance Burgos was kayaking and camping with his son at Lake Fausse Point State Park in St. Martinville, Louisiana. As he pulled a pool noodle out of the water that is used to mark catfish lines there was something on the other end. Only it definitely wasn’t a catfish. Crazy how close his young son was to this gigantic alligator. The boy, sitting behind his dad, starts crying immediately. And it could have been a lot worse.
