•Hot dog! The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled a Georgetown University “Jack the Bulldog” bobblehead in honor of the mascot’s fourth birthday which was yesterday.
The bobbleheads are expected to ship in March and can be purchased here. They’re officially licensed and produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum. For those unfamiliar, Jack the Bulldog is Georgetown University’s official live mascot and quite the presence at campus activities and sporting events throughout the year. The Class of 1964 brought the first “Jack” to campus back in 1962. Georgetown lore has it that the puppy would only respond to “Jack” and not “Hoya,” the name students gave him.
“We’re excited to be releasing this bobblehead of Jack the Bulldog on his 4th birthday,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar. “We know how passionate the Georgetown community is, so we expect this bobblehead to be extremely popular. It will make a great keepsake for Georgetown alumni, students, faculty, staff, and fans everywhere.”
The Georgetowner did a Mapping Georgetown feature on Jack in September 2022 — you can find that here.
