A baseball fan and his emotional support alligator, Wally, tried to get into the game between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday in the City of Brotherly Love.

The Philadelphia Inquirer identified the fan as Joie Henney. He came to Citizens Bank Park walking Wally on a leash and saying that the nearly five-foot alligator was his service animal.
