Time to vote for the ultimate Bulldogs fan!
Our panel of judges has selected the four finalists in our Junkyard Blawg Fan of the Week contest, with this week’s theme being the ultimate Bulldogs fan.
Now it’s up to you to select the ultimate fan by voting in the poll. Our finalists include a family that has given its lawn the ultimate Bulldogs treatment, a fan whose Bulldog room comes complete with a Christmas tree decorated with UGA ornaments, a disabled little girl who isn’t able to attend many games but who was thrilled to meet up with the Georgia cheerleaders, and a fan who takes tailgating so seriously that he has coordinated his shirt with the tablecloth. Woof!
The winner will receive three seats in one of the sky boxes at Sanford Stadium for the final home game this Saturday, plus the winning photo will be shown on the stadium’s big video screen before the game.
Who deserves to be our ultimate fan?
Fan No. 1
Fan No. 2
Fan No. 3
Fan No. 4
Who should win our ultimate fan contest?
- Fan No. 3 (52%, 445 Votes)
- Fan No. 2 (27%, 231 Votes)
- Fan No. 1 (12%, 107 Votes)
- Fan No. 4 (9%, 82 Votes)

What about the guy w/the vandy band? If that’s not spirit I don’t know what is. I mean he took on the opposing team’s band. That’s gotta be worth something

Wow. And something’s wrong with the economy? No, I think people are just being stupid with their money.

How about those Florida Gators, 20 wins in a row. I think we should send them a card and a gift basket.

#3….this girl is a true Dawg fan and does not anything get in the way of her love of the Bulldogs. She uses her “Bulldog” heart to help get her though her many medical challenges…she is the epitome of Bulldog toughness and Beauty!

How can the “disabled little girl” not have 99% of the votes?

There’s such a thing as overkill. I feel sorry for the guy with the UGA living room.

Hell, anyone can paint their yard, have a Georgia room (I’ve got a better one than that) or lay on a tailgate table.
Baylie’s display of sheer courage, continued cheer and Dawg spirit through multiple surgeries and crippling pain personifies the heart and toughness of a true Bulldog. Plus she’s every bit as beautiful as the cheerleaders she’s posing with. GO #3!!!!!
WOOF!!!!

It’s easy to kiss off a vote for #3 as one of pure sympathy, but I know this little girl, disabled since birth, is as true and faithful a Dawgs fan as any alum. The trip to the game would be one of the big highlights of her very young life on both counts.

#3 is the WORLD’S biggest Dawg fan – and she’s got a slew of people who believe in her kind of courage. When the going gets tough, Baylie hunkers down. It’s not about things, it’s about HEART! You go, cuz!

The word “disabled” does not describe Baylie (#3)…she’s a bright, sweet, polite kid with more character and courage than most. Also been raised right by her dad to be a DAWG fan extraordinaire! All the pool gang is cheering you on!

I voted for #2 as he’s obviously obsessed with the Dawgs. I’m changing my vote to Baylie after reading the comments on this poll. She’s a first team All American in my book.

Baylie is #1 (although she’s pictured in photo #3). She is an inspiration to all of us (Google Baylie Symms to learn more about her). Baylie is one fine, sweet little lady who loves the Dawgs… even as they struggle this season. But, when you appreciate what the real trials of life are, you can put a few losses of mere football games into perspective. You go girl… we’re all pulling for you to get better… and pulling for the Dawgs to win out, as well. Woof-woof!!

I am surprised to see that the picture of the guy waving his flag deliberately in front of the Vanderbilt band is not one of the finalists. Sure all these pictures show that the individuals are fans, but the Vandy picture was clearly an example of true UGA pride. I think his picture should be included among the finalists pictures.

The pictures are nice but i have to agree with the comment above me. That was true Dawg Pride!!!!! His picture should be brought back for another chance c’mon people!

None of these are really stand out. I thought this was suppose to be about showing Dawg pride? My vote is for the kid at the Vandy game. True Dawg fans have the guts to cheer for their team in the mist of the opposing team and this kid did it in front of the opposing team’s band?? Am I the only person who sees this as epic? I’d buy the kid tickets if I ever met him. I say bring his picture back.

Didn’t get a chance to see the picture that is mentioned above, but it sure sounds like it was a better picture than the ones shown. These aren’t really doing anything for me. I’d like to see this picture.

I would like to thank all who have expressed such kind words for my daughter. Baylie has taken every thing life has ever thrown at her with a smile. I do not say this to get more votes, I say this as an appreciation. It has made her day to see these votes and comments. I would say more but believe it or don’t, this is not to get more votes, it is just a thanks. It has been a real tough year for Baylie. This response means more than I can describe. Do not feel sorry for her, she brightens the lives of everyone she meets. I did not want to post anything because it might influence the voting. But I did not want anyone to think Baylie was not grateful. So, I busted our rule to say, Thanks, really, just thanks.
Proud to be Baylie’s Dad.

Normally, judging by the school name, you might think that. But Wofford is a very good team. Give the Dawgs a chance, and soon you’ll see them dance. I guarantee it (just not this year). This team will bring excitement and wins very soon. Woof-woof! Come see ‘em @ The Coliseum!

Fan 1. Thank God these hillbillies are not my neighbors
Fan 2. Fireplaces in doublewides; what will they think of next
Fan 3. I am sure she is a nice kid, just a little misguided
Fan 4. Must be a special occasion, upgraded to Bud Lite from the usual Naty Lite

Fan 3 is the clear winner.
Fan 1: Looks like a Florida fan standing in his neighbors yard.
Fan 2: Why? I am a big Dawgs fan but i always have to ask that question whenever I see something like this.
Fan 4: Word cannot describe the idiocy here. What is going on in his mind. “I’ve got the best idea ever – Ill dress up like a tablecloth.” First, taking up table space at a party not only displaces things like chips and beer pong or flip cup, but also impedes drinking.

Fan # 2 is all about the UGA DAWGS! His house and the basement in particular is a shrine to UGA..His wife and youngest daughter both graduated from UGA, and his oldest daughter also attended there..He and his wife are have been season ticket holder for years and they’ve been all over the country supporting the dawgs…I understand why people will gravitate towards # 3—-but FAN # 2 —-IS THE ULTIMATE BULLDOGS FAN!

For your info—–FAN # 2 lives in a 500, 000 dollar home in a exclusive private neighbor
and he retired from GENERAL MOTORS @ age 48……Get your facts straight, before you pop off about things you don’t know….So, they thought process on here seems to be feel sorry for the girl in the wheelchair—–It’s not a sympathy contest—It’s about being the ultimate UGA FAN! —FAN # 2 –MIKE PETER’S IS THE ULTIMATE BULLDOG FAN!

I just wanted to thank everyone who voted/commented on this for your support & kind words, I appreciate it so much! You guys have no idea how excited I am to be going to this game! I haven’t been to many Georgia games, but my dad & I watch every one they have on Tv. That can’t possibly compare to watching the game from a sky box, though! Not only that, I’m extremely honored to have been named the ‘Ultimate Bulldogs fan’! Thank you guys so much!
