Where did the “Get Your Goat” expression originate?
The Jersey Journal, March 21, 1906, p. 2 referenced how, not only could someone get another person’s goat, but a person could also lose their goat by losing their composure. “Joseph Dunn, 24 years old, of 88 Beacon Avenue, lost “his goat” yesterday when small boys with hard snowballs used him for a target.”
