It was tough last night watching the goat and watching the vote. I'm not sure which loss I feel worse about, but the day's still young.
is the goat a trojan goat and by that i mean is a squad of police going to jump out the moment some one try's something *imagions police pouring out of goat's backside* "EVERY ONE DOWN IN THE SNOW!"...............yeah i have problems.
Found the statue! Take a look at this page on the website. Look just behind the rear legs of the goat and you'll see it. Which means the camera has to be on that lit-up building behind the goat or on that long pole just to the right of the light pole behind the statue.
Yeah - there have been a couple of people in hi-viz vests wandering around when I've looked at the camera.
I read up on the year, which a group dressed up as Santas and a gingerbread man to burn the goat. Superb work.
Still wanna see the goat live. But when I actually made plans to do so last year, it burned within like hours after erection.
this reminds me of a card given to my sister on her 21st birthday from some dude which stated: 'i'm mutton without ewe' we had moved from new zealand a few years earlier so it had additional mileage it's weird some of the inane and random things you remember in life
They say burning the goat is bad for business, as visitors cancel their visits once the goat burns. The problem is that the town is more famous for the burning of the goat than for the goat itself. If you burn it, they will come, but not if you burn it too early. The challenge therefore for the tourism council is to make sure the goat burns, say at least 3 years out of 4, but late in the season. That would be the perfect rigged system: a cabal of late season goat arsonists run by the Tourism Council. In a perfectly rigged goat world, it would always be an inside job.
