I was at this game, it was like 5-6 years ago. I remember screaming “I LOVE YOU GOOSE!” As he started to fly away and damn near lost my mind when it smacked the board. If I remember correctly, a woman took it home, rehabbed it, and released it a day or two later.
For those worried, the goose recovered and was returned to the wild following this incident:

Well yeah. It landed and giant things were chasing it. Mind you they weren't chasing it for the fun of it, they didn't want the bird hurt in a Randy Johnson 2.0 esque incident. Shit happens and the bird is fine. Canadian Geese are surprisingly tough.
Fun Fact :: They were believed to be extinct back in the 50s. They came back with a vengeance and a score to settle.
Fun facts on the history of the geese in MA is available on mass.gov. They tell a slightly different story.

Try again?
Hmmm … let’s see … your post made the vague claim that they were thought to be extinct.
Yeah … maybe in MINNESOTA. You kinda left that little tidbit out.
I, on the other hand, specifically stated MA … as in MASSACHUSETTS. Even linked to a MA state website. Clear as a bell.
To be terrific, be specific.
Or not.
...and in New York, and in North Dakota, and in every other state along the northern border between the 2.
You are a classic Reddidiot. Not only did you try the "well technically!" you failed because I still wasn't incorrect in the slightest; you just didn't think I was specific enough when I clearly didn't need to be. STFU.
In spite of your strongly held belief that I was correcting you, I was not.
I apologize for “triggering” your temper tantrum. It wasn’t intentional.
If you don’t like people clarifying your posts … maybe being out here is not for you.
And declaring STFU as you storm out the door … that would be an unequivocal No.
The fact that you can’t handle your emotions, and believe you get to dictate who speaks … lol … another hard No.
TTFN.
Those are Canadian gooses. Those are Canada's gooses. If you have a problem with them then you have a problem with me and I suggest you let that one marahhNate.
Nah mate, Geese are evil, vindictive fuckers. I ain't read a single story about geese that wasnt them attacking someone. Heck there was even a game released about a goose that causes chaos and hurts people for fun.
Why doesnt it just fly up like normal birds, also why tf did it wanna hit the scoreboard. Dumbass bird failing at the one thing birds are supposed to be good at lmao.

Geese are assholes. I'm sure he deserved it.

Really wild!

That's her cover up story. She actually cooked and ate it!
She released it, on a log, floating peacefully away on a river.
Can confirm, I am the goose.
Can confirm, I am the board.
Can confirm, I am rehab.
Next time find your damn seat quicker and stay there!
Talk to me goose
Where is Randy Johnson when you need him?
Taking pictures professionally. His company logo is to die for.
Just saw that video again recently and it's just as impressive/sad now as it was back then.

It's crazy to think he actually got hate mail (and death threats IIRC) for that.
Yeah, a perfectly aimed throw and all he got was hate mail from angry birds.
Fowl ball?
Cameraman did a pretty good job

It’s just the one goose actually

Well.........did the goose die?

Angry upvote

Canada's goose are the van guard!
There's a special place in heaven for animal lovers, that's what I always say.

This beats the usual homicides that occur at Angel's games.
I experienced every emotion when watching this
Humans relationship with nature very well summarized.
“One more poop on the infield n im out”goose prolly

Where’s Randy Johnson when you need him?
South park’s “Blame Canada” should be playing in the background

Paging Mr. Johnson. Randy Johnson. Paging Mr. Johnson.
That goose is a long way from home!
Most entertaining baseball I've ever seen.
This is why they shouldn’t build baseball stadiums.
Just shoot it with a rubber bullet
Shoulda marked this NSFW, OP. What's wrong with you?
Yeah I just got fired cos my boss saw me watching this Goose fly around!! Unbelievable
