The goose has left Wrigley Field, but its legend lives on in the most baseball way possible: a bobblehead.
The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum announced Thursday it’s selling a bobblehead honoring the “Wrigley Goose,” a Canadian goose that made itself comfortable this weekend in a planter box in deep centerfield to watch the Cubs take two games out of three from the San Diego Padres.
The standoffish rally animal — known to hiss if you got too close — forced the Cubs to cordon off dozens of bleacher seats. The team deployed a crew of “geesekeepers” to keep guard and protect the bird.
The goose’s black and white head poked out over the evergreens to gawk at fans and soak in some baseball. Now, it will bobble forever.
The museum, based in Milwaukee, is pre-selling the goose bobblehead for $30 plus $8 for shipping — expected to arrive in October, when the Cubs (9-6) hope to be playing playoff baseball.
“This bobblehead will be the perfect way for fans to commemorate the Wrigley Goose,” museum co-founder Phil Sklar said in a statement.
The goose received a flurry of nicknames from fans, among them Pete Goose-Armstrong and Suzuki, nods to Cubs speedster Pete Crow-Armstrong and slugger Seiya Suzuki, who already has four homers to start the season.
The animal left the Friendly Confines by Monday morning as a local celebrity.
