Meet baby goat Foles. The fuzzy addition to Zoo New England’s goat family was born on April 23 and named in honor of the Eagles quarterback thanks to a Super Bowl bet against the Philadelphia Zoo that required the loser to name its next baby goat after the quarterback of the winning team.
In addition, zoo directors at Zoo New England, Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo and Providence’s Roger Williams Park Zoo had to clean animal enclosures while wearing Eagles gear and donate $1,000 to charity.
The bet was just one of many made between Philadelphia and Boston institutions.
