- Walking past Sanford the week before a home game and feeling overwhelmingly excited.
- Binge watching Frank Martin’s pump up videos the night before.
- Waking up early and looking out the window to see red and black tailgates everywhere.
- Watching Georgia car flags in the wind.
- Passing strangers and greeting them with a friendly, “Go dawgs!”
- Tailgating on Milledge.
- Tailgating in Greek Circle.
- Tailgating anywhere.
- Cheering as the team makes their way toward the stadium in the Dawg Walk.
- Watching little kids run around in mini UGA football and cheerleading uniforms.
- Friendly strangers offering everyone food from their tailgates.
- Calling the dawgs anywhere and everywhere.
- Making your way towards Sanford Stadium with 92,000 of your closest friends.
- Walking past the Spike Squad.
- Standing by the hedges, surrounded by a sea of red.
- Attempting to replicate the cheerleaders' dances (and failing miserably).
- Looking towards the lone trumpet soloist as they belt out our battle cry.
- Watching Hairy Dawg pump up the crowd.
- Realizing Hairy is the most confident, hotshot mascot in the SEC.
- Scratch that, in the country.
- Oohing and aweing over the feature twirlers’ performances.
- Realizing the twirlers have more grace in their pinky finger than you have in your whole being.
- Getting chills from Frank’s videos on the jumbotron. They were good the night before, but there’s nothing like watching them in Sanford with the team.
- Uga strutting his stuff across the field.
- Shouting, “Sic ‘em!” after kickoff.
- Cheering, “Georgia!” and having the south side of the stadium respond, “Bulldogs!”
- Standing in a packed stadium, no matter if it’s rain or shine.
- Barking as a sign of support.
- Watching our running game annihilate any opponent.
- Hugging, high fiving, jumping up and down with anyone and everyone after a touchdown.
- Feeling so much pride when you see the Georgia flag waving in the wind.
- Holding four fingers up right before the fourth quarter begins.
- Listening to the Redcoat band play “Krypton” while your hand is raised.
- Singing “Glory” at the top of your lungs.
- Walking out of the stadium after a win singing along with all the other dawg fans and thinking, “Thank God I’m a Georgia Bulldog.”
