1. as someone who has

had goats, pigs, calves, chickens, bees... in my vehicle at various times... I would never put them in danger by driving drunk while they are in the car

3. But how these goats got in the minivan is unknown......lol

2. Too Funny !!

"Being police investigators, we quickly noticed two goats in the back of the van," police said in the tweet.

"Seeing as how our goat holding cells were at capacity, we did the logical thing and called the driver's wife to come pick their goats up. The only problem was, they didn't own any goats. Where they came from is a mystery that may never be solved," police tweeted.

Their plea to the public: "Please drive sober. Don't end up with goats in the back of your minivan this holiday season."

4. I wanna know how he explained the goats after he sobered up.

5. WAIT...WUT?!! LOL!! Is this REAL? OMG, I'm a native of California, (& live here, thank God),

we get SO MANY aspersions cast at us from so many other Americans who, at as SOON as they can afford it, RUN OVER THEIR GRANDPARENTS, SICKLY MOTHER, THEIR GRANDCHILDREN, WIDOWS & WIDOWERS, ORPHANED PUPPIES & KITTENS to vacation here, ESPECIALLY to The City, (ie, San Francisco), & the BAY AREA in general, (which includes Santa Clara, Alameda, Monterey, Marin, Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino & Santa Cruz counties).

6. You think something this important would be on the driver's test

But noooo, all I got was a bunch of malarkey about red lights and pedestrians and blind spots.

[Nevilledog]

7. I wanna hear how you would explain the mystery goats to your spouse.

[gratuitous]

10. Don't ask, don't tell

She's a quilter, and I never ask her about bins of fabric. I think I've banked a little incuriosity about any caprine passengers I may or may not have taken aboard.

[Nevilledog]

11. Those do not seem equitable.

Fabric vs. Live goats in your minivan while you're driving drunk

[Clearly fogged in]

8. One day a hero, the next a goat. (scapegoat)

Give those two goats MAGA hats!

[Wounded Bear]

9. I'll try to keep that in mind...

12. It wouldn't surprise me if the goats came from a couple states away with no explanation...

At how they got to West Seneca in the back of the minivan.

Judge: Have you remembered anymore about how the goats got in the back of your van?

Suspect: I remember going to the liquor store, but there were bright lights blinding me as I started to get out and I blacked out. The next thing I knew, I woke up in jail with everyone making goat sounds at me and laughing at me.
