Info from Licensor: "We were four friends on a deep sea fishing trip. The boat had the four of us and the captain. We hooked a huge Ahi Tuna and began reeling it in. It took the four of us probably 15 minutes of hard work to get the fish close to the boat. Once we were ready to start bringing it aboard, we saw a tiger shark lurking around our boat. The captain hooked the fish and was about to pull it aboard when the shark began biting the fish. The captain fought to bring the fish on board, but by the time we could, the shark had eaten half of the fish. The captain said that based on the size of the remains of the tuna, it would have weighed at least 140lbs, and would be worth $1,000 depending on the season. We were out with a few other boats and our plan was to gather all of our catches and grill them up for ourselves at the end of the night. Unfortunately, we didn't have much left of our fish."
