Not only is "escape goat" an instant classic, but the whole sentence is a mixed metaphor masterpiece. You have the image of a train going off the rails while you're trying to get away frantically riding a goat. Well done all around.

On the old Union Pacific line, they used to keep a goat in every passenger car, just in case the train derailed.

 

True story.

Did they smell bad, Tom?

Escape goat.

 

This could be a game changer.

 

Years ago my wife and I heard Mark Langston, while pitching for the Angels, said he was the escape goat. That was probably 20-25 years ago and we still laugh about it today.
