Bully mascot question

[quickdawg]

Is there a full list to be found anywhere of all the English Bulldogs that have served as Bully? An LSU friend of mine has recently become employed by Mississippi State and is in such turmoil about it that he's asking me...well, he's basically asking me if Bully has ever been a *****.

What sayeth the pack? Google only produced articles about the most recent two or three and the original Bully.

I can give you a list from 1935-1983ish

Ptolemy 1935
Bully I 1936
Shirley 1939 (Stand-in after Bully I was killed)
Bully II (Beau Legg) 1939
Bully III 1942
Bully IV 1942
Bully V 1945
Bully VI-A 1947
Bully VI-B 1947 (A and B roamed the sidelines together)
Bully VII (Mr. Muggs) 1953
Bully VIII 1957
Bully IX (Joker) 1966
Bully X (Sergant Mac) 1967
Bully XI (Rebel) 1972
Bully XII (Romeo) 1972
Bully XIII-A and B (Trajan and sissy, respectively) 1974
Bully XIV 1975 to 1983 at least

We are stillputting together the full list. We have a story in the University Archives about each of the above dogs. If anyone knows the names of the dogs from 1983 to the present we would appreciate the help in completing the list.

Is the current mascot still Champ? His dad before him was Tonka... I think a local Meridianite had one of Tonka's puppies...

What kind of sick joke is that? Damn. I hope he's not buried anywhere near Scott Field. Or the Hump or DNF for that matter.

thats an awfully harsh reaction to the name of a dog....

You know, since the first one was buried at the 50 yard line. If Rebel is close by, the old stories about the Indian burial mound may not be true after all. Could be Rebel haunting the playing fields of MSU.

...they were supposedly related to a past Bully. The timeframe is close enough to being right.Perhaps "Rebel Tornado" was "Rebel's" AKC name or more likely his son.

Best of luck to you on finishing the list.
