    It's unclear from the wiki if the Natural Science Club was involved in hiring security or if that was just the Southern Merchants. Seems unlikely cause they're just kids in secondary school?

      Southern merchants didn't re-enter the competition until the next year. But it was probably the city who hired them.

        they erected the goat each year from 1966 to 1970 and from 1986 to 2002

        Ah, good point. This wiki article is oddly structured...
