Got chased by a goose at the county fair demo last summer...
I was doing a live forge demo in Boise, hammering a leaf, and this goose just waddled right up to the anvil like it wanted a closer look. When I stopped to shoo it away, it got mad and chased me around the coal pile for a solid minute while the whole crowd laughed. Anyone else ever had an animal crash their work zone?

At least the goose gave you a better show than the leaf did.

Oh man, I read somewhere that geese are super territorial. That lines up with what dereks11 said about it being a nightmare. You basically just have to back away slowly until they lose interest.

A solid minute of being chased by a goose sounds like a nightmare. I would have been terrified of getting bit. That story from nelson.wren about the raccoon and the sandwich is bad too, but at least a raccoon isn't trying to attack you. How did you even get the goose to leave you alone?

Honestly, the worst part is the audience. A raccoon once stole my whole sandwich during a lunch break at a park build, and the clients just stood there filming it instead of helping. You feel so betrayed.
