That’s only slightly more sensible than hunting an alligator with a frisbee which was my first thought.
That’s a horribly dumb prize for a stupid game though.

I think there’s more to the story involving illness, unemployment, poverty and the risks one takes in order to survive.

A camera crew from NBC affiliate WFLA of Tampa was recording when trappers tracked down and removed an alligator from the water Tuesday evening, the station reported.
The reptile was euthanized, and a necropsy will be performed to determine if it was involved in the attack, WFLA said.
Remind me again who was encroaching on whose territory?

Remember, these are disc golf gators. Their baseline skills are extraordinary.

May - June is alligator mating season, and they’re known to be more aggressive and territorial at this time. When I lived there in the early 90s, there were warnings on TV and radio about staying away from lakes and ponds.

Is there a big market for second-hand frisbees?

Maybe instead of a “No Swimming” sign they could go with “Beware of Alligators”?

“Naw, don’t worry about that, Billy. They just put that ‘Beware of Alligators’ sign up there to make folk stop swimming here, cause they figured people were just ignoring the ‘No Swimming’ signs. Everyone knows there ain’t no alligators, they’re just ‘No Swimming’ signs, so just go ahead and ignore it, like everyone else does. Billy? Billy? You already in the water there, Billy? Where’d you go?”
