"Witness questionable decisions in real-time!"
โ ๏ธ WHAT YOU'RE PAYING TO SEE โ ๏ธ
You're purchasing tickets to watch people wrestle alligators. This is not a metaphor. These are real alligators
wrestling real people who made real bad decisions. You will witness:
โข Humans vs. Reptiles (Reptiles usually win)
โข Screaming (From participants and audience)
โข Medical interventions (Frequent)
โข Questionable life choices (Constantly)
โข The smell of swamp (Unavoidable)
This is entertainment for people with specific tastes. If you're looking for safe, family-friendly fun,
try literally any other venue. If you're still interested... welcome to the swamp.
