Some places on Earth just have a reputation that precedes them. Florida is one of those places — you don’t have to have ever been there to know that it’s a land that produces some wild and hilarious headlines in the news. People wrestling alligators, record numbers of golf cart crashes, and iguana-induced power grid blackouts are not just stereotypes or jokes — they’re the reality of The Sunshine State.
Bored Panda has collected the wildest pictures from the Internet that depict the craziest and most unhinged things that happen in Florida. A Bentley in a trailer park? Check! A horse dyed like a zebra crossing the road? Check! So, scroll down and see for yourself what really makes Florida USA’s wildest sandbox.
