Cowbell_Keenums_BulldogCountry_20161117_4RH7112.jpg

"Cowbell from President Keenum's collection: historic 'I'm From Bulldog Country.' The cowbell is a longstanding symbol of Mississippi State pride. Today, cowbells can be found at Davis Wade Stadium on football game days every fall - where fans always 'Ring Responsibly' - as well as in offices and homes of faithful Bulldogs around the world. Tradition holds that a person’s first cowbell should always be a gift. The cowbell pictured here was presented to MSU President Mark E. Keenum in 1973, when he was 12 years old, by his father, Mr. Charles Everett Keenum."
