I’l sure that all of the local Eyewitless News teams already have their “Goatpocalypse 2018!!” chyrons generated and queued for tonight’s lead story.

I prefer the term “Caprapalooza”, but hey, whatever floats your goat.

So how much does it cost to hire a herd of goats to eat your lawn? And does that include cleaning up the goat droppings afterwards, or is that extra?

Judge Punch, Perhaps this is “Why a goat?”

Or, perhaps, Bevilacqua’s minions have finally risen.

The droppings are free fertilizer. It’s a bonus.

There’s no reason to post this other than that I laugh every time I watch it:

This is Fake News. The goats were obviously released on purpose, to drum up business for the goat rental biz. The news media was informed in advance that they’d have a fun story for their mid-day break, and the tweet about “no one knows where they came from” is disingenous, how could you not guess it was the only local tribe of 100 goats. They’ll pay a few hundred bucks for damages at most, and reap untold billions from this stunt.

Droppings are included. On the other hand, lasers on the goats are a premium option
