An oral history of when Bevo charged Uga at the Sugar Bowl

[ArizonaLonghorn]

Excellent article from ESPN about the great mascot stand off in the Sugar Bowl. I didn't know Uga had bitten someone at an Auburn game, or that Jordan Shipley ran into Bevo at the end of a punt return against Tech for a TD, or that Bevo took a dump on the Nebraska logo - "Brennes [Silver Spurs]: We had a moment walking Bevo off the field against Nebraska in the Big 12 championship game, and he defecated on the word "Nebraska" when we were walking him off." Photo to prove it.

The only thing they gloss over is the photographer who got horns down in the back - everyone, including the AAS photog, is laughing about it in the article but he later filed a lawsuit asking for $200,000 - $1,000,000.

The mascot I wouldn't want to handle is Ralphie the buffalo - Bevo seems mild mannered by comparison.

Was in that end zone for the 1999 Big XII champ game when BEVO crapped all across the Nebraska end zone.  Highlight of that day.

Me too. We lost that game but we all cheered when Bevo let us know he felt the same way we all did.
