Night Time Goat Sighting at the Muni Yard


Photo by Tony Ta

You’re not hallucinating. These are goats at the Muni yard. Tony Ta has pictures to prove it. It appears that Tony and his girlfriend even petted the goats later that evening. Here’s what Tony saw:

My girlfriend was riding the 38BX into work yesterday morning when she looked up and saw hundreds of goats as her bus was passing the Muni Barn at Geary and Presidio. It looks like they are there, on the western hillside, to trim down the overgrowth. Apparently, no one else on the bus saw them since they all were too busy with headphones on, trying to ignore each other. I didn’t believe her when she told me so she made me jump in the car with her and drive over to the Muni Barn on the Trader Joe’s side. Sure enough, there were some 200 goats just hanging out on the hillside! It looked like they were settling in for the night, but they are still scampering about when she took the bus this morning.

Later that evening:

And here are the goats scampering away.

Two years ago we had another sighting of goats at the Muni yard and learned that they may be from Goats R Us or City Grazing. The goats have been spotted at CCSF and Forest Hill station.

Thank you, Tony and girlfriend, for your investigative Muni goat reporting!

 

AT&T Park: Corgi Dressed as BART Train

This one I shall eat with a spoon.

Transit-themed costumes showcasing Bay Area pride are par for the course. Even Muni Diaries has been known to make costumes from time to time.

Last weekend was Dog Days of Summer at AT&T Park. For those of you with patient pets, Dog Days means your canine can join you in watching America’s pastime in scorching 65-degree heat. Sometimes (often), there are costumes. The annual event, this year benefiting the SPCA, proved once again that San Francisco loves dogs, (Giants) baseball, costumes, and dogs+baseball+costumes.

And transit. Let’s not forget transit.

A+ for craftsmanship and awesomeness goes to the corgi repping BART.
