Bryce Harper, Alligator Spotted At Flyers Game Monday

PHILADELPHIA — "An alligator and a baseball star walk into a hockey game."

That sounds like the set-up to a corny joke, but it was the reality Monday night at the Philadelphia Flyers game.

The Flyers took on the Carolina Hurricanes Monday night, ultimately dropping the match up 3-2.

At the game were Bryce Harper and his family.

Harper, 31, and his wife Kayla Varner brought their two children to the game.

Videos on social media showed the family walking up the stands with security escorting them and fans cheering for the slugger.

The Harpers were upstaged a bit, however.

The viral "emotional support" alligator Wally was also in attendance at the game.

Wally, of Lebanon County, was permitted into the arena for Monday's game. He was recently not permitted into Citizens Bank Park during the Phillies' playoff run.

Flyers mascot Gritty event got to spend some time with Wally at the game, posing for photos with the reptile that were later shared on social media.

Gritty brought out Wally for the "Lion King Cam" segment at Monday's game.
