The greatest Georgia Bulldogs mascot, UGA X, a “damn good dawg,” passes away at age 10.
UGA X, the former football mascot of the University of Georgia, passed away on Tuesday, leaving the winningest legacy in the
program’s history.
The university said that UGA X, also lovingly referred to as “Que” by supporters, passed away quietly in his sleep. He was ten years
old.
During his eight seasons with the Bulldogs, Que oversaw a 91-19 football record, making him the most decorated mascot in program
history. During his career, Georgia made seven New Year’s Six bowl trips, two Southeastern Conference Championships, and back-to-
back national championships.
The university’s athletics department said on X that “He will always be remembered as a Damn Good Dawg.”
On November 21, 2015, during Georgia Southern’s game, UGA X formally took on his duty in a collaring ceremony. He retired
following the 2022 campaign. Boom, also known as UGA XI, took up the mantle from him.
According to the university, Que and Boom are descended from a line of pure white English bulldogs owned by the Seiler family, who
have had UGAs on campus since 1956.
