  1. This year they moved the location of the goat to stand more in central Gävle. Because it’s closer to buildings the sentences can be much more harshly for any would-be pyromaniacs.

  2. I had a quick read about this goat. This has to be the most amusing tradition anyone could participate in! It’s literally a game of who could win with their objective! Guards guard the goat, while arsonists need to try to burn the goat down. The authorities could just stop erecting the goat every year, but is also a game for them!
