Over the years, McGregor, a former Major League Soccer player, has had a number of goats with which he has enjoyed aquatic adventures. They've also starred in YouTube videos and even two children's books, with McGregor perhaps inevitably earning himself the local nickname "The Goatfather". "My calling is to bring joy to people. And it's through goats and through surfing," he says. "People find inspiration. They're like: 'Oh, if a goat can do it, I can do it'."
