The Year of the Goat

Best Dressed
Charlie Brown, a pygmy goat, is the winner of the "Best Dressed Goat" costume contest at the International Goat Days Family Festival, in Millington Tennessee. The annual festival draws 6,000 to 7,000 visitors a year, and features a "Cabrito Challenge," a cooking competition in which contestants are given a few pounds of goat meat and free reign to prepare it as they choose.
