    I think @TCF-1138 has seen it before. On that note, if the goat burns on the 25th, I'm blaming him. If it burns on the 30th, though...

    Yeah, I've seen it a few times.
    And if it burns on the 25th, it's a complete coincidence! [face_whistling]

    Someone brought a smaller goat to the square and burned it earlier tonight. The official Gävlebock is still intact though.

    I saw the official goat on the webcam about an hour ago - still untorched.

    I'm in Gävle now, changing trains, but I don't have enough time to visit the goat, especially since I don't know where it is in relation to the railway station.

    Why is it a thing to burn the goat?

    People are pillocks

    The same could be said for why do people do anything stupid.

    Has no one tried the tried and true method of all proper burnings?

    If you're here: Gävle Centralstation, 803 11 Gävle, Sweden
    Then you can take the bus to here: Gavle Radhuset (5 min ride, comes every 6 minutes)
    Then it's a 5 minute walk to the goat, which is here: Södra Kungsgatan 5, 802 51 Gävle, Sweden

    If you don't want to take a bus, it's an 8 minute car ride, assuming you have Uber / taxi.

    You people are ghoulish. (keep in mind I'm the one rooting for the Goat to escape unscathed)

    this isn’t a bad idea. rain can bring lightning and a bolt strike could cause a fire. #tomforprez

    The goat is proving disappointing again this year.

    I'm disappointed this wasn't the first in an on-going series of minute to minute updates.
