Enlarge KARE-TV The newly named goat "Brett" now makes his home in Packers country, namely the Eleva, Wis., farm of Duane and Carlene Schultz. VIDEO VIDEO Work in a tire shop and you'll see your share of lug nuts. But the guys at Tires Plus in Winona, Minn., will never forget their encounter last Friday. It started with a broken serpentine belt and a driver stopping in for a repair. The woman was told the fix would take an hour and that she should stop back then. But before she left she had a little something to share. "By the way," service writer James Prusi recalls the woman saying, "There's a goat in my trunk." Prusi wasn't sure he heard correctly, so he asked the woman to repeat herself. "She said she was going to butcher the goat." Now the guys at Tires Plus aren't ones to meddle in their customer's business, but then the goat started crying. "It sounded like a child almost in the trunk," said Prusi. He and the other workers decided they just had to open that trunk. That's when the story got even weirder. Under the lid they found the goat's feet tied together. He was painted purple and gold. On each of the goat's sides was a shaved Brett Favre number four. Some might find the very notion amusing. But not service technician Jeff Bronk. "It's not funny. If it was a customer and they got tied up they wouldn't think it was funny." The workers called Winona animal control, which arrived along with three police squad cars. Officers removed the goat from the trunk and questioned the woman. In statement police said the goat had been in the trunk about an hour. The woman said she was driving to Minneapolis. There was no mention of taking the goat to Friday night's pre-season Minnesota Vikings game, to be played later that evening. Workers at the tire shop say the woman was traveling with a man and a child. She gave her address as St. Paul at the tire shop, though an animal control officer said the woman was from Onalaska, Wis. Her case will be turned over to the Winona city attorney for possible animal cruelty charges. Police say the one-year-old goat was scared and lethargic when it was removed from the trunk. There is however a happy ending. As of Monday evening, the newly named Brett the goat was making his home in Packers country, namely the Eleva, Wis. farm of Duane and Carlene Schultz. "He will have a good life here," said Carlene who agreed to take in the goat at the request of Winona police. They know a little something about Bretts at the Schultz farm. Last summer their ill-timed Brett Favre corn maze made international news. "We think it's a happy ending for this Brett," laughs Carlene. "I don't know how the ending will be for the other Brett." © Copyright 2007 USA TODAY, a division of Gannett Co. Inc.
