Dog Save the Queen: Reveille Tells All in Never Before Seen Interview!

This week, Mugdown reporters sat down with the famous Miss Rev to learn what it’s really like to be the Queen of Aggieland, the loveable pup that holds a special place in the hearts of Aggies worldwide.

“Every day, I wake up with the curse of immortality and beg to be released from this mortal coil. I have lived countless lives as your pet and countless more before, and in that time, I’ve watched everyone I’ve known and loved grow old and die,” Reveille said. “Is there no reprieve?”

When asked how she came to be the fetching school mascot we all adore, Miss Rev got a distant look in her eye, recalling a tale of exploring ancient ruins with friends and stumbling across something that changed her life forever. “We should never have entered into the temple of the Old Gods. They were long gone, but what we found there was even worse. I was the sole survivor, doomed to walk this earth for eternity with the shame of what I’d done.”

After over 35 years at Texas A&M, this unstoppable pooch has run onto the field before football games hundreds of times, cheered on by roaring crowds of thousands. Being a national celebrity does have its perks, and Reveille is no exception. “After untold lifetimes, now I’m just a spectacle for the unwashed masses. It’s far better than the unspeakable cruelties I was forced to commit in the Colosseum, but those horrors still keep me up at night. I have seen empires rise and fall, so make no mistake, I am no man’s pet.”

As the official mascot of Texas A&M, Aggieland’s favorite furry companion can be spotted around campus with her handler and on the sideline at every game, so keep a lookout! By all accounts, Reveille seems to be having the time of her life, so it doesn’t look like Miss Rev’s going anywhere anytime soon.
