Goats removed from Simsbury High School roof overhang
WFSB ^

Posted on 06/06/2012 2:25:13 PM PDT by matt04

An unusual surprise was waiting on top of a roof overhang at Simsbury High School on Wednesday morning.

Simsbury High School officials said four goats were found on the roof overhang of the facility by a custodian who arrived at 5:15 a.m. to begin the day.

The goats were all safely removed from the top of the 10-foot overhang and classes were held at the school as normal.

It's unknown how the pygmy goats got onto the overhang in the first place, but Simsbury police said they believed the incident could have been the result of a senior prank.

Hint, it was a senior prank. How do they think the goats got on the roof to begin with? Climbed? Flew?

And a great prank it was.

However, be prepared for the UN dorks to blame it on climate change.

Goats on the roof can be a good thing.

We raised some goats when I was a teenager. Man, they can get anywhere.

Perhaps they jumped on the roof as they were already in the trees.

I'd rather have goats on the roof than in the bedroom.

After that remark, you should feel sheepish.

“How do they think the goats got on the roof to begin with?”

It’s probably a prank, but they could have jumped up there. Goats are like nature’s parkour experts.

EXCELLENT Senior prank! One a bit better was my oldest brother’s Senior class. They assembled a car in the library. I believe it took them all night. The next morning, one of the Brothers (Catholic boy’s school) opened the library door, switched on the light and there was a car! They had a good laugh, called in the Senior boys who disassembled it and removed it. Legendary!
