{{BalloonAnimalsHistoryFragment}}
- this is not a good pattern for lore fragments...
- this covers all the cups in one fragment
- most other teams have a section for each cup,
- and each section might have subsections for each fragment,
- but all in one history fragment doesn't really work.

Hellmouth Cup
The Curse of the Silly Goat refers to a curse that affected the Jersey OSHA Violations for the first 48 seasons of their existence, the entirety of the Hellmouth Cup and Toroidal Cup.
The Jersey OSHA Violations stadium was built on the site of a former petting zoo. The main attraction at the former petting zoo was a theoretical, non-Euclidean goat, which was purely conceptual. However, when the petting zoo was shut down, the goat was never set loose, and when the stadium was built on the site, the perturbed non-Euclidean goat spirit began to cause "goat in the machine" glitches during matches. These tended to strike the OSHA Violations at their most crucial moments, creating a long string of heartbreaks.
The curse was finally broken in Rainbow/Season 1, for reasons that are still poorly understood. One possible explanation comes from a 14-year-old fan of both the OSHA Violations and the philosopher Martin Heidegger, who published a research paper with a mathematical proof that a "conceptual goat" could be pacified by the "concept" of a three-sided fence. During Rainbow Cup postseason matches at the OSHA Violations stadium, several fans positioned themselves at mathematically precise focal points around the arena. One fan held a sign saying "This is one side of the fence." The second held up another sign that said "This is the second side of the fence." The third held up a sign that said "This is the final size of the fence."
The conceptual fence, which may have been missing a side, or may have had an extra side, trapped the conceptual "goat in the machine" in the machine, and the paradox rendered it unable to interfere with matches, allowing the OSHA Violations to finally win. - Curse of the Silly Goat
