Death of a Bulldog: University of Georgia Mascot

By Steve Dale, November 20, 2009 at 9:43 pm

Live in Georgia? Follow the Bulldogs? If so, your big time celebrity isn't Oprah or even Southern Cooking sensation Paula Deen, it's Uga VII, Georgia football's mascot. He died, and was only 4-years old. The UGA mascot has quite the legacy, even helping to popularize the English Bulldog.
