Why is ESPN still using walking bulldog?

[bulldognation]

Thought we retired that thing long ago.

Because it is the the logo from my childhood and I love it. But no idea why they’re using it

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Because Gardner-Webb trademarked Runnin’ Bulldogs. **

Hate that thing, looks like he’s dancing with his disproportionally short legs.

 

[DoctorDawg]

Passive aggressive jab at us.** Dunno, but I hate that thing.

 

[MarkDallas]

I'm almost certain they ask the school for official graphics.

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

I'm happy they didn't use Col. Rebel or a Bear.

I've always hated it, although I did do the "cool" think in the 80s and line up my parking stickers so that you could see 5 walking Bully's in a row.

A friend of mine, who is a Bama grad and knows how much I hate walking Bully, was shopping in a surplus store over the summer. So, for Christmas I got a walking Bully coffee mug, and a T-shirt with the rare double walking Bullies on each side of various random campus scenes. Awesome present! I was drinking out of the coffee mug just this morning.
