Ches McCartney - The Goat Man



Rick Bragg wrote about him in his book Where I Come From. That’s the first picture I’ve ever seen of him.

He traveled around in his goat pulled wagon. The news stations would always announce he was in town. People would go see him and get their picture made. Most would tip him a couple of bucks for posing with them for the photo.

He lived to be almost 100. He was 97 or 98 when he died.
