Bill the Goat

Bill the Goat is a living legend at the United States Naval Academy. He's been the school's mascot since 1893, and he's seen it all - from football games to graduation ceremonies. Bill is more than just a mascot, though - he's a beloved member of the Navy family. Bill is represented by a live goat and a costumed midshipman. The live goat lives in a stately home on campus, and he's treated like royalty. He gets his own room, his own food, and his own personal trainer. The costumed midshipman is responsible for leading Bill around campus and making sure he's well-behaved. Bill is a big part of Navy football games. He's usually led onto the field before the game, and he's often featured in the pre-game festivities. Bill also loves to interact with the fans - he's always up for a scratch behind the ears or a handful of treats. Bill is more than just a mascot - he's a symbol of the Navy's spirit and tradition. He's a beloved member of the Navy family, and he's sure to be around for many years to come.
