Handsome Dan XII
1975-1984.
"Bingo", owned by history professor Rollin Osterweis, was described by her owner as "pugnacious and stubborn, but lovable." Bingo also had the distinction of being the only female Handsome Dan. Bingo was stolen by four Princeton undergrads dressed as Yale cheerleaders. They took Bingo to a friend's apartment in New York City on the run from authorities. The mastermind behind the canine-caper was Mark Hallam '79. The group of students took Bingo back to her owner and held a press conference for her return.
