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.
This headline…is the 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?
Aw come on. They were just kidding around.
I wish this would happen to my neighborhood.
Why can’t nice things like that happen in my yard?
+1 for the New Kids on the Block tweet.
fear of trademark confusion with coprapalooza?
Coprapalooza’s the afterparty.
What a lovely break from the usual shitshow the news has become. Thanks for sharing, @xeni!
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
