Gritty dancing with the famous Philadelphia emotional support alligator is oddly satisfying

Gritty dancing with an emotional support alligator is the crossover we never knew we needed.

In September, a Philadephia Phillies fan tried to bring his emotional support alligator to a Phillies-Pirates game. There’s not exactly a dedicated space for alligators, but the fan figured he would bring Wally Gator, as he’s appropriately named, anyway.

Citizens Bank Park said absolutely not and sent the fan and his gator friend home. But, by gosh, all is not lost.

The same courageous fan showed up at a Philadelphia Flyers game recently, and things quickly got out of hand in the best way possible.

A video posted by Haley Simon of 97.5 The Fanatic shows Gritty hilariously dancing (and swirling?) beside the animal in a collaboration I did not expect to enjoy so much. Wally Gator looks completely unamused, but Gritty is loving it.

This is a 10-out-of-10 production. Five stars. Highly recommend.
