SARASOTA, Florida (KTRK) -- When a Florida family decided to take a dive in their backyard pool, an unexpected -- and quite large -- guest decided to ruin the plans.

Deputies with the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office were called to a home after an eight-foot alligator was found at the bottom of the pool.

Wildlife officials called a trapper who removed the gator.

"Because no two days on patrol are ever the same," Sarasota County deputies wrote on Facebook.

Oh, the joys of Memorial Day weekend in Florida.
