But that’s the thing. Most Floridians know better than to enter dark, still waters. Hell, even students on the University of Florida campus know they shouldn’t mess around at Lake Alice because of gators (though some need some physical example). Plus, there are signs.
And Largo tends to be a little more wild than the UF campus.
Lake Alice takes a heavy toll in small dogs, by the way.
ETA: The thing that always amazed me was that Baby Gator Preschool on campus is directly across the street from Lake Alice. Of course, there’s a fence around the play area, but geez.
