In Like a Lion, Out Like a Goat
First Wednesday is almost upon us, which means it's time for the monthly Chicago meetup! [more inside]
First Wednesday is Upon Us
First, we meet at the Original Billy Goat Tavern. Then we decamp for shenanigans. You should join us because the world is a terrible place, but the Goat is familiar and the Chicago Metahounds are the best folks around. [more inside]

G . O . A . T .
Let's get our act together and go, at the usual time, to the greatest of all taverns! (The Billy Goat.)
Quite possibly the end of an era
The Blue Frog is shutting down in January and there's a pretty good chance the owners will have alienated the staff so much that everyone will throw in the towel before then, so this might be the last First Wednesday. If you've ever been, you'll want to join us this time. If you've never been, you must join us this time. [more inside]

May Goatup!
Time for our regularly scheduled monthly meetup at the Billy Goat, plus a very important PSA: Mother's Day is the Sunday after this meetup! If you're at this meetup and haven't figured something out yet, you're setting yourself up for failure. Don't let it happen to you. [more inside]
Post Labor Day Goatup
You again!?!?
You know the drill. [more inside]
Speaking of. . .GOAT FROG MoMu15
It's next week, folks. It sneaked up on me; don't let it sneak up on you. Join fellow MeFites in Chicago for our Month of Meetups celebrating MetaFilter's 15th anniversary EVERY! DAY! OF! JULY! [more inside]
June Goat Frog
I've got an idea: let's celebrate the longest month of sunlight in the Northern Hemisphere starting out in a dark basement bar and ending up in a different dark bar. [more inside]
taoG ylliB|Billy Goat
On behalf of the Chicago Chapter of the Cabal*, I repudiate the current rumor that there is "a rampant pro-billy goat prejudice" on Metafilter. Mr. quidnunc's allegations are scurrilous, pernicious, libelous, and, what's more, categorically untrue, and I reject them with the utmost strenulosity.
That bit of business concluded, I'm pleased to announce our seventieth or so monthly meetup, to be held on the first Wednesday of March at the famous Billy Goat Tavern! [more inside]
How is there not a February Goat on the books yet?
The first Wednesday of February is fast approaching. LET'S DO THIS.
Oh and hey guys by the way look what I found. [more inside]
Post Turkey Glut Goat
December Chicago meetup! [more inside]
November Rain Goat
Inquiring minds want to know if the Metafilter Last Supper picture is hanging on the wall at the Goat still. Why don't we check it out and also have a meet-up? [more inside]
Billy Goat Gruff
I have a great idea! Let's get together at the classic Chicago bar, the Billy Goat Tavern! [more inside]
August: Goat County
(Coming up on time, so I figured I go ahead and post this before people started getting anxious.) This is our monthly Chicago meetup as the Billy Goat for those who don't yet know that this is what this is. You should definitely come to this if you did not already know this. It is good. (You should also come if you have already attended and did know this, but I'm not as worried about making you feel comfortable.) [more inside]
Get Drunk Blow Things Up
The first Wednesday of July is the 3rd, which means that we have a pre-holiday goatup! I don't know if this means there will be a small showing or a magnificent karaoke fest, but it's TRADITION, so. July 3. GOAT. [more inside]
Goat Song
Goat Song : Chicago is the story of a year in the life of a group of mefites who abandoned their one-bedroom apartments in Chicago to live under Michigan Avenue raise Billy Goats. In poetic, reverent detail, EvilSpork talks of our ancient relationship to the land and our gradual alienation from the Billy Goats that feed us. His fascinating account traces his journey of the choosing of the billy goat, and learning how to breed, brew, and curse the cubs with them. [more inside]
March Goat-Up (crush, you can stop twitching now)
OMG! It's my first goat/frog IRL post! [more inside]
Goatober and Presidential Smackdown 2012
October 3rd is both the first Wednesday in October (GOATUP!) and the first presidential debate of the season. [more inside]
GOATENATING THE COUNTRYSIDE
September has begun (or will have had begun when this meetup has happened) and thus it is time for a billy goat tavern meetup followed by the totally optional (and totally awesome) karaoking at the blue frog.
Once you go greasy, you'll probably have intestinal troubles
April showers may bring May flowers, but May flowers make my eyes itch. Hopefully, they'll all die in June. [more inside]
Something Something May Goat
Same Goat time, same Goat location. We will also honor the closing of the Bizarro Goat. And THAT is why, you DON'T OFFER FRIES.
April Goat
So, Wednesday is April 4th, the first Wednesday in April. Shall we meet at the Goat as per usual?
March Goating--Pre-shearing party
I keep losing track of when the March Goating is. It should be next week, but for the leap year thing, it's the week after. So I'm putting it here, to keep me from forgetting. Perhaps it will help someone else. In the interests of helping others, we'll meet instead at the Grafton Pub, in Lincoln Square, where misskaz is guest bartending from 6pm-9pm to raise money for the shearing of her goat head for charity.
February Goat Meetup
It's that time again. Be there. [more inside]

First Goatup of Fall
You know you want to be there, so just say yes to tiny beers. Happy autumnal equinox evryone!
Goat-Up
Didn't see the monthly goat-up post. Figured I'd make it.
I feel like Charlie from Charlie's Angels. Nobody ever sees me, but I'm running the cabal!
Do we have a goat for August 3rd?
There's no post for the (I assume) August 3rd Goat meet-up.
Of course, I'm just wondering, since I've never actually made it to one....
My Tiny Beers Bring All the Goats to the Yard
And they're like, yeah, it's ok...I mean, there are better places to get a burger, but this'll do just fine it's better than yours. [more inside]
Monthly Goat.
Tiny Beers, cheeseborgers, possibly springlike weather. What has everyone been up to since last month? Meet us at the usual place, at the usual time, and listen to the usual stories. It will be fun! No, really. It usually is! The question is: "What are you doing to ensure it stays that way?" That's what I thought; see you there.
Monthly Goat--March 2011
So, next Wednesday is March 2, which means your friendly neighborhood TINCC* requests the honor of your presence at the Billy Goat Tavern under Michigan Avenue. [more inside]
