Biden Makes Awkward Joke About Secret Service Shooting Florida Official Vice President Joe Biden speaking at the Florida Everglades on Monday joked about his Secret Service detail threatening to shoot the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commissioner Ronald Bergeron “He wanted me to wrestle alligators. You all think I’m kidding. I’m not kidding. He’s one crazy son-of-a-gun. Where are you Ronnie? There he is. And the worst part is, [Sen.] Bill [Nelson] introduced me to him. I wondered, Bill, why? He said, ‘No, he wants [you] just to do a little project with him. I thought the project was something about restoring the Everglades. It was about seeing whether or not I was really an athlete,” “But you see this man right here, my Secret Service guy? He played in pro-football, also was on that national championship team... He said if I go, he’ll shoot you, Ronnie, so …I’m only kidding. That’s not true. He didn’t say he’d shoot Ronnie. He said he’d shoot the alligator if I went. I just think it’s incredible, and I still think you’re nuts, Ronnie,”
