Portlandia Comes To Our Street - Goat Kart riding

I do not get to watch much TV.  During the summer, we have definitely seen a more movies than usual on our TV.  But, Dad says there is something called on TV called TV shows; they are like short movies. 

A couple of weeks ago they were filming one of these TV shows, Portlandia, on our street.  In fact, they were supposed to use our house for one scene; but they did not because they were running late and the crew had to go to bed.  They will be back, maybe they will use our house then. 

Dad says the show is about Portland and a critic of modern/hipster culture.  To celebrate their filming Mom, Dad and the Neighbors wanted to do something truly Portland-hipster (I still have no idea what that phrase means).  We made a sign:
We tried to convince the two 'stars' of the show to take a goat kart ride on our neighbors goats; they never responded.  After hearing nothing, we decided to take our own goat kart ride (it's kind of like Mario Kart, only Amelia is still scared of the goats).
