This morning, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled an officially licensed, limited edition bobblehead of Uga X to honor the beloved University of Georgia mascot who passed away peacefully at his home in Savannah on January 23rd. Uga X, who was also known as Que, debuted in 2015 and retired as the winningest mascot in Georgia history at the end of the 2022 season. The bobbleheads, which we think are the perfect way to honor and celebrate Uga X’s incredible life, were produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, an official licensee of the University of Georgia.

  • The bobbleheads, which recently arrived and ship now, are available for sale at this link as well as at The Red Zone and The Clubhouse in Athens.
  • Each bobblehead is individually numbered to only 2,023 to commemorate the year when Uga XI took over the mascot duties from Uga X at the Collaring Ceremony at the G-Day Game in April 2023.
  • The bobbleheads are $30 each plus an $8 flat-rate shipping charge per order.
  • Standing on a University of Georgia logo base bearing the name Uga X on the front and Que on the back, the Uga X bobblehead has its tongue out in playful fashion while wearing his custom-made jersey.
  • After a three-month audition, Uga X was formally crowned as the successor for his grandfather, Uga IX, who was also known as Russ, in a changing of the collar ceremony prior to the Georgia-Georgia Southern game on November 21st, 2015.
  • The Bulldogs’ good luck charm, Uga X went into retirement as the winningest mascot in Georgia history. On the football field, the Bulldogs had a 91-18 record during his tenure, including back-to-back College Football Playoff National Championships, two SEC titles and victories in the Rose, Sugar, Orange, and Peach Bowls. Que passed Uga VI, who reigned from 1999 to 2008, as the university’s winningest bulldog.
  • During the pregame ceremony before the Bulldogs’ spring game in April 2023, the Collaring Ceremony at Sanford Stadium was completed as Uga X’s collar was taken off and placed on Uga XI to a roar of cheers and “BOOOOM!” from the crowd in Athens.
  • All 11 official bulldogs who have served as Uga have been part of a line of pure white English bulldogs owned by the Frank W. “Sonny” Seiler family in Savannah, Georgia. The tradition began with Uga I (aka Hood’s Ole Dan), who was born on December 2nd, 1955, in Columbus, Georgia.
  • “Bobbleheads are the ultimate way to honor and celebrate a person or mascot, and we think this bobblehead of Uga X is the perfect tribute to his amazing life,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said. “Uga X is loved throughout the state of Georgia and well beyond by Bulldogs fans, alumni, students, faculty, staff, and community members who had the privilege of watching and interacting with the beloved bulldog for many years!”
  • The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, which is located at 170 S. 1st. St. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, opened to the public on February 1st, 2019. The HOF and Museum also produces high quality, customized bobbleheads for retail sale as well as organizations, individuals, and teams across the country.
