Dancing In The Rain With Alligator Shoes Spells Confidence

LOS ANGELES, CA - Local Los Angeles man Jeremy Hapwood was spotted dancing in the rain with alligator shoes on, leading witnesses to believe he was either incredibly wealthy or incredibly stupid. According to several accounts, the rain was coming down incredibly hard, but Hapwood didn't have a care in the world, confidently splashing through massive puddles and twirling an umbrella while wearing what appeared to be expensive shoes made from alligators.

"The rain doesn't bother me, chap," onlookers heard Hapwood say to passersby. "I've got my alligator shoes on. Jolly good, eh! Now, where did I park my British car? Cheerio!"

According to witnesses, Hapwood's shoes protected his feet from the rain but did little to keep him from looking like a giant tool. "It was quite the sight, I say," one witness told reporters. "I saw a man wearing alligator shoes splashing about in the rain. Thought he might be a bit touched in the head, honestly. Who wears alligator shoes in a downpour? Insufferable snob, that's who."

At publishing time, Hapwood had contracted a rare form of pneumonia and was telling his doctors that he always dresses for the weather as he peeled off his $500 alligator galoshes.
