We've seen all kinds of 'emotional support' animals, but an alligator?

 And it's not even in Florida. Go figure...

If you happened to walk through LOVE Park in downtown Philly on Friday afternoon, you weren't tripping if you saw an alligator. Visitors at the Center City park were surprised by the unexpected appearance of an emotional support gator, who splashed around in the spray ground and appears to have thoroughly enjoyed the fine mist. Britt Miller was taking a walk with her baby daughter when she saw the commotion in the park.
The alligator's name is Wally, which has prompted speculation that it's the famous Wally Gator from York, Pennsylvania. The seven-year-old American alligator, measuring roughly five feet in length, was adopted in 2016 by reptile enthusiast Joie Henney.
The red harness worn by the gator in LOVE Park appears to be the same one worn by Wally in photos from a 2019 story in the York Dispatch. 
 
Honestly, how many emotional support alligators named 
Wally can there be in Southeastern Pennsylvania?
Easy answer - one too many...
 
Here's the back-story:
