Is This or Is This Not Bob Barker Trying to Battle an Alligator?

We’re in the business of breaking down viral videos, folks. It’s just engrained in what we do here. But, every now and then, some video comes across our desk that really makes us think, “hmmmm – there’s more than meets the eye here.” Today is such a day. We all know and love Bob Barker. He was the charming host of The Price Is Right for approximately 80 years. But, since retiring from the show, no one really knows what he’s been up to. Well, my friends, I think we may be on the right track after this video surfaced:

When did Bob Barker become Crocodile Dundee

Okay, I know these guys are being funny with that caption, but I think there’s a real opportunity for some investigative journalism here. While many will focus on the fact that an old man is wrestling a gator in golf clothes, I’m asking who the old man is. That’s what us real journalists do. Also, real journalists allow you to think for yourself. So, I’ll let you guys decide whether that’s Bob Barker or not. It’s open to interpretation.

As for the technique, you know – I think it could’ve been better. You can tell this old dude has been in some scraps before because he tries to give this gator the okee doke. That’s pulling your opponent’s shirt over his head so he can’t see how to fight for those of you not raised in the mean streets of Mount Juliet. But, when your old and your bones are brittle, it’s hard to really pin a gigantic beast like this down, and this old guy’s missing a chunk of his arm for trying. Damn.
