My son was about 10 yards in front of me, and the goose was running/flying low right behind him and he started yelling "DAD!".  I yelled back "speed up" thinking the goose would stop chasing, but he didn't.  So, as the goose started pecking at his heels, I sped up and started kicking at the goose and finally when it turned to face me, I got a good punch in on its skinny little head.  It must have dazed him because he dropped and stopped chasing.  

I'm sure from a distance, our battle looked hilarious, as it went on for at least 100 yards before I got him.  My son was scared at first then we both started laughing as I almost wiped out when I hit him with a left handed jab while still riding my bike.  

I saw a video from the Columbus Zoo (I think) where a goose chased a silverback gorilla and the gorilla actually turned and ran!  They must not have the intelligence to be a little afraid, because that Gorilla could pull it in to pieces easily.  Funny stuff.    

And welcome to these boards!  The best I have ever been a part of....and I go back to the original AOL (dial up buzz) message boards.  

Loooololol oh man, I believe! I’ve seen videos where they’ll fight elephants, gorillas, damn near anything and everything. I got my name because there was a goose that would always attack me in college. It would wait outside the door for people (I think it had a nest nearby) and once you walked up, the fight was on, man. Looking back, it’s inxredibly funny to be scrapping with that goose every day.
