Town hopes no one burns down its giant Christmas goat this year
The town of Gavle in Sweden hopes no one gets its goat this year — meaning the enormous 40-foot-tall goat made out of straw that residents erect every year for Christmas, only to witness it bued down by vandals. The goat has never made it past mid-December without getting torched. (Someone even tried to steal it once by helicopter.) This time, though, the town is determined to help the goat make it to the holidays: The creature has been soaked in an anti-flammable chemical. \"We're aware that the goat is only famous because it gets bued,\" a Gavle spokesman told The Local. \"It would be great if it didn't actually bu down this year, because that would be the most unexpected result. Then we might really get a lot of attention.\" [Source]
