Stop me if you’ve heard this one before…

This guy walked in a bar with an alligator on a lease...

At Johnny's Saloon in Orange County, California, it was no joke.

Authorities say a man walked into the bar early Saturday with a one-meter pet gator on a leash.

But by the time police and animal control officers arrived, the gator was in the man's vehicle in the parking lot. So officers followed the man to his home, where another alligator was found.

The gators were impounded for investigation by the Department of Fish and Game.

Alligators are not native to California and it is illegal to keep them as pets.
