That\u2019s exactly what happened in a California Tuesday. A resident there say the goats were clearing brush from the hill behind his house when they broke through a fence and went wandering through the neighborhood. Videos have emerged of the goats being rounded up in the streets. Neighbors say the animals feasted on potted plants and left of trail of droppings behind.

Houses are referred to as \u201cTented Houses\u201d and hotels as \u201cSuperLabs\u201d, and the board features locations such as \u2018Unncle Jack\u2019s Compound\u2019, \u2018JP Wynne High School\u2019 and \u2018Schrader House\u2019.
