Week of the weird
In need of greener pastures
"We assumed she was driving to St. Paul with a goat in her trunk."
Not something you hear everyday, but that's how one Minnesota mechanic explained his odd day at the office. A woman brought her car in for a bad belt, but when mechanics opened the trunk they found a live goat ...tied up ... spray painted Minnesota Vikings purple and gold ... with a "4" (Brett Favre's number) shaved into his wool. The woman said she was heading to have the goat slaughtered, but now she's being hit with animal cruelty misdemeanors.
But there's good news for Brett the goat. Animal Control found a great new home for him on a 110-acre farm where he can roam freely and grow out his spray-painted highlights. Even better news? His new owner is a Favre fan.
Heaven forbid anyone try to show any team spirit these days. Last time I checked we have rights in this country and as long as we're not dog fighting, we should be able to have a little good natured fun with a goat.
Favre better cool his jets too. If he throws another dirty block like he did against the Texans last night, someone might spray paint him and throw him in a trunk.
