I made a point at every game to get a photo of him. He was usually lounging on bags of ice in his doghouse on the sidelines of Sanford Stadium. His pre-game ritual usually consisted of him rolling lazily on the field as the Red Coat Band played, that is, when he wasn't barking vigorously or lunging at the end of his leash at anyone who happened to stroll by.

I remember the summer Saturday he died of congestive heart failure vividly. I was sought out to find pictures of him because everyone knew I loved him and photographed him often. It took just minutes for me to compile enough pictures for a gallery as I had most of them at the ready on my desktop. That Monday I came in on my off day to photograph his memorial ceremony.
