R.I.P. - Sid, a loyal and true Bulldog
It's with much sadness we mourn the passing of our beloved Sid.
A regular feature at Bulldogs home games at Etihad Stadium for 7 years, Sid stood with us through thick and thin.
Will forever be a Bulldogs legend 🔴⚪🔵 ( WB Twitter)

Oh shit.
Sid is dead. RIP fella.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Sid was a great mascot. I'll never forget him humping another teams mascot one day. Hilarious. Can't remember which team.

It was the magpie but I believe that was the previous mascot Butch, not Sid.
Poor Sid passed away just over a week after his twin sister Rosie.
Our Bulldog is about to turn 8, thankfully being an Aussie she should have a longer life expectancy than a British.

That was Butch, the short term mascot before Sid. His owner was less than easy to deal with so the club sacked him and brought in Sid.

Sad to hear. Multitudes of supporters and I patted Sid after the long walk to the G for the Bulldog's final. He and his twin were too young to die. Gee the breed has a short lifespan.

At least we gave him the chance to lead the boys out onto the 'G on Grand Final day. That would have to be the pinnacle of a mascot's career wouldn't it! 100 000 pounding hearts to one side with the boys forming up in a line behind you on the other.
Sid did good.

I love how it can be difficult to deal with someone walking a Bulldog from time to time in front of people.
TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

Never underestimate how big a tool someone can be once they think they've got some celebrity!
The owner started demanding custom food be paid for by the club, private transport be provided for the dog to and from events, VIP privileges for the owners etc. The club's response was- yeah nah we'll get another dog, thanks anyway.
