According to some commenters, this hack has been around since the ’40s. It’s older than that, in fact — I imagine since the dawn of domesticated grass-eating animals, the old stake-and-rope trick has worked wonders. Goats never did it quite so neatly, though. It looks like a UFO landed there. Bonus: no goat poop.
