Lee is such a good guy, feel bad for him.

Who is Lee Watkinson (the golfer?) and why exactly should we fell sorry for him?
Dude was harvesting dangerous animals that could have killed somebody.
Does anyone remember that story with that crazy lady who harvested an ape that went nuts and mauled her friend and ate her limbs and face a few yeara ago?
Whatever ever happened to just owning a dog?

Yeah, he is a cool guy and they don't seem to have fucked up in any way - it just seems like it was one of those things. I feel bad for him too. I just couldn't believe it was him when I saw the story.
Any time I hear the word chimps I think of boris. RIP(in my mind)
Check out his high stakes living video, lives next door to Floyd mayweather. Wife is annoying as all hell though.
chimpout ending partnership with micon was the begining of the end.

Oh and for a serious response the below is a very good movie.
I noticed you left out explaining the chip rescue and the Full Tilt fundraiser helping the chimps. Did you get that?
Sorry dude, any dude that cages wild animals in their backyard needs some type of therapy. I mean, give me a fucking break, you are harversting chimps in your backyard. Why on earth would you fell sorry for a guy whose chimp was killed potentially going on a killing spree?
You're right Lee Watkinson's affiliation with Full Tilt Poekr was all a big scam to steal player funds for some shell charity claiming to help chimps??!?!?!?!
Since you know nothing about Watkinson --where he keeps the chimps and that in fact they are not pets-- I'm not even going to try to explain why I feel sorry for him.

1) YOU posted a video validating your point about Lee and Chimps, with Lee stickered up with Full Tilt and talking about the Chimp Charity Drive via Full Tilt (1:59)
2) I don't care where anyone puts the chimps. Harvesting Chimps in a cage in 110 heat is just fucking really fucking wierd. Owning them is more strange.
The fact you feel sorry for the dude that had a derpessed chimp wanting to eat people in 100 degree heat with no leaf cover is equally odd. I get the fact if this was in the Sudan dude. But it is the desert
Oh well, free country.
Note: I have no idea is Sudan houses chimps. Somewhere in Africa does.
Riboflavin is right. That chimp botherer is a fucking cunt.
So he sprayed around a few grand from Full Tilt to lock some chimps in a steel cage in desert heat. What a great fucking dude.
My point was Steve O said he felt sorry for the guy. Give me a fucking break.
I admire the chimp. I am sure he said to his chimp girfriend that he was going out like a male chimp and streak down the highway he stared at for years. He wanted his 10 minutes of freedom, and got shot down like a proud caged chimp should go down.
The only one I feel sorry for is his girlfriend. Now she has nothing to do except dream while zoo gawkers stare at her.
Maybe if you didn't talk out of your ass you wouldn't look like an asshole.
He used $100,000 of his own money from the 2007 or 2008 Main Event to rescue the chimps and build the enclosure. He was spending hundreds of thousands of dollars because the Chimps were in captivity and cannot be released back into the wild. They both cared for and loved the chimps.
Yes I feel sorry for him, just as I would feel sorry for someone who lost a loyal dog. Not only that but he has to deal with all of this BS second-guessing of what he was doing with the chimps from people like you. Like he isn't already second-guessing every decision along the way, along comes someone who knows nothing about the situation and thinks the chimp wanted his freedom which it can never have because of what happened to it before Lee and Timmi rescued them. He was making the best of a terrible situation for these animals, and you act like he should have just flown them back to Africa and let em loose.
