The original Billy Goat tavern location was “born” in 1934 when Greek immigrant, William “Billy Goat” Sianis, purchased the Lincoln Tavern. Sianis became known as “Billy Goat,” when a goat fell off a passing truck and wandered inside the tavern. When Sianis took the goat, Murphy, to the baseball game they wouldn’t let him in claiming there are no animals allowed; Sianis threw up his arms and said they would not win another game. So began the Billy Goat Curse. One year before the passing of Billy Goat, he claimed the curse was lifted…RIP BILLY!
