Prize-winning Colorado goat in doping row

The grand champion goat from this year's Colorado State Fair has been disqualified after testing positive for an unapproved feed additive.

Margaret Weinroth, who raised Theodore the goat, will not receive its $5,500 (£3,500) sale price and is barred from future livestock events at the fair.

A second goat raised by the Weinroth family also tested positive for the additive, ractopamine.

They denied any wrongdoing and said their feed may have been tampered with. Margaret's mother, told reporters the family's animals have always tested clean


Tests carried out on Theodore's urine revealed traces of ractopamine, a muscle growth additive approved by the federal government for use by swine but not goats.

That's brilliant

 

[Dr. Maserati]

How long is Theodores ba-ba-ba- ban for?

 

[hrotha]

You can't make this **** up.

 

[Cloxxki]

Looks buff. Like it would make a greater steak than you should reasonably expect.
What an excuse that would be.

"You found WHAT in my blood and urine?? I only eat meat from prize winning goats that have always tested negative until reaching my plate. I did all I could."

Later, the goat ended up on Contador's dinner plate.

There seems to be a major misunderstanding about this story. The "goat" in question is not a farm animal. It is a:

Greatest
Of
All
Time.

But it does live in Colorado, that part is correct.

I bet he's the Black Sheep at the Fair now.

Where have you been checking to know it's not a natural blonde?

 

[craig1985]

Does anybody know if the goat in question has survived any serious illness, or trains harder than all the other goats?

The goat runs with a higher cadence than most normal goats. It also has a great vo2 max than most other goats......

Glad I finally have time to read this gem, well played guys.

[Martin318is]

yep - as if you needed any further proof that sometimes the mods just don't know about something that is happening on the forum, it took me until 20minutes ago to notice that this thread/story existed....

..and well done Dr Masserati!

Yeah I reckon she'd have to be on drugs to wear that belt with that top! Ghastly.

This goat was on mountains six hours a day.
What are you on?
