Ohio Governor John Kasich made a campaign stop at Billy Goat Tavern on Michigan Avenue yesterday! Good luck at the debate!!



The Goat has been a favorite campaign stop for politicians for decades. If the Trump campaign decides to host an event with us, we promise to keep our goat away. They’ll eat anything.

Cheezborgers and beer or stuck in traffic?
Gee, that’s a tough one.

We’ll even put a curse on your boss, if it’ll make you feel better.

This Halloween, stop by Billy Ghost and wolf down a few cheezborgers this Halloween.

Speaking of haunting….the Cubs recently proved that they’re still haunted by the Curse of Murphy the Billy Goat. Do you believe The Curse is real? https://youtu.be/PeBZmnVpcWw

Check out this article that chronicles all of the events that have included “Murphy”, from David Murphy to the 1984 Cubs losing 3 in a row at Jack Murphy Stadium:
