And with that two great traditions were born; the construction of a gigantic straw goat and the struggles to either burn it down or keep it from burning down (depending on your point of view). Over nearly the next half century the Gävle Goat would undergo several changes, as in 1971 the Southern Merchants decided to stop wasting money on a goat that would burn down and the Natural Science Club from the School of Vasa took up the task until the Merchants got back into the game in 1986. Ever since the first and only twentieth anniversary of the goat's construction, there has been two built; one by the Southern Merchants the other by the Natural Science Club.

  • And with that two great traditions were born; the construction of a gigantic straw goat and the struggles to either burn it down or keep it from burning down (depending on your point of view). Over nearly the next half century the Gävle Goat would undergo several changes, as in 1971 the Southern Merchants decided to stop wasting money on a goat that would burn down and the Natural Science Club from the School of Vasa took up the task until the Merchants got back into the game in 1986. Ever since the first and only twentieth anniversary of the goat's construction, there has been two built; one by the Southern Merchants the other by the Natural Science Club. The goat has undergone "fireproofing" with mixed results, has been guarded by a range of people and technologies, and all the while has become bigger and bigger. But despite all of this, statistics reveal that it has survived only 43 percent of the time.
