# Hero of the Day: Silly Billy

This guy, who brought his pet to an off-road race. And not just any pet, either. A goat. Now, according to Wikipedia: “Goats readily revert to the wild (become feral) if given the opportunity.” This photo is from King of the Hammers, the gnarliest, nastiest, loudest single-day rally on earth. Which seems like “the opportunity” and then some. Well worth the risk. Hero.
