Georgia Bulldogs mascot Que, who is known as Uga X, has passed away peacefully in its sleep according to the University of Georgia. Que lived to be 10 years old.
Que began his career at Uga for the Georgia-Charleston Southern game in 2015. Georgia won a pair of national championships (2021, 2022) during his tenure. 2021 was Georgia’s first national championship since 1980. Que finished his career as Georgia’s beloved mascot going 91-18 from 2015-2022.
Que passed on the reigns to Uga XI, known as Boom, at the 2023 Georgia football spring game. Boom went 13-1 in his first season as the Georgia mascot.
Social media was saddened to hear of Que’s passing and remembered some of his top moments.

One of Que's top memories
A fun fact about Uga X “Que”:
Officially collared on November 21st, 2015 at halftime of a game against Georgia Southern. It was a night game and it was the FIRST TIME we ‘Lit Up Sanford’ going into the 4th quarter.
