The Best College Mascot
 

I read this in the paper today and it brought a tear to my eye!!

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Uga VI, mascot for Georgia football teams that won six bowl games among 87 victories over a nine-year span, was interred at the university's football stadium on Monday in a mausoleum with the remains of five predecessors.

Uga VI died from heart failure Friday in his hometown of Savannah. The body of the English bulldog, whose registered name was Uga V's Whatchagot Loran, was flown to Athens along with his master's family in the university plane.

The body was carried inside Uga's kennel on the back of a golf cart across the field at Sanford Stadium on Monday afternoon accompanied by the song, "The Battle Hymn of the Bulldog Nation," which is played before Georgia football games.

"There are probably some who think it odd to pay this much attention to an animal, a puppy, a dog," university president Michael Adams told the gathering. "I would suggest to you that Uga is a very powerful symbol, symbolism of the tenacity and strength of the university, Uga VI, particularly."

Love the team or not this is the greatest mascot in the country. Here's to you UGA VI, finest dawg ever!!!

No offense, but it's a dog ffs... Try losing a Tiger....

I hear ya! Those 2 have squared off a time or two!!!

UGA is pretty dope. I really liked when tried to bite a couple of Auburn players...

I imagine losing a dog would be way harder on someone from Georgia. You can't fuck a tiger.

Hahaha LOL

yeah they fuck back!!!

I have always been a big fan of the "Offensive" mascots or teams, Seminoles Redskins, Fighting Irish, and the like because I love watching people get bent out of shape over them.

Then there is the school with the white geeky guy as their mascot.

those animals are all too fucking cute and its sad to lose any of them

heh that dog looks pretty mental. rip
