Bonus Time Hero of the Week


Killer Croc.

An Italian Mafia boss in Florida had been using a crocodile to threaten his enemies and scare them out of money. I know, that's a lot to swallow so I'll give you a minute.

Pretty bad ass, eh? Apparently the croc was discovered while authorities were searching the guys home looking for guns, instead they found a weapon of a different kind.


Antonio Cristofaro had been keeping the nearly 90 pound pet alive by feeding it live rabbits and rats. You know, to keep the taste of warm blood fresh on it's mind. According to animal experts, the crocodile would have been capable of biting off a grown mans arm in one bite.

Cristofaro used the croc to bully mostly entrepreneurs out of extra money. He was charged with illegal animal possession, and it's not clear whether or not he's been arrested.

This is one hell of a way to get things you want. Got a problem? Yeah, well I got a crocodile in my back yard so let's do this. Way to live your Bonus Time, after work I'm gonna go buy a shark, or wolverine or something.

Or maybe a ... Sharverine? Stay tuned....
