It seems the term FLORIDA MAN is a media boogie man like gunman.
With an average "Florida Score" of 46, South Florida is home to the best of Florida Man. Highlights include tossing an alligator into a Wendy's in Palm Beach and assault with a reptile in Broward County. The Tampa Bay area claims the most spots on the Top 10 Florida Man articles list. It is home to incidents such as public molestation of a stuffed animal in Hernando County and stolen police cars in Pasco County. North and Central Florida see less of Florida Man, but make their marks with incidents like driving an SUV off the showroom floor in Marion County and biting off a thumb en route to a Taco Bell in Brevard County.
There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. -Ernest Hemingway The man who makes no mistakes does not usually make anything.-- Edward John Phelps
