'''Keggy the Keg''' is an unofficial mascot of [[Dartmouth College]], an [[Ivy League]] university in [[Hanover, New Hampshire]], [[United States]]. Keggy is an [[anthropomorphic]] [[Keg|beer keg]], invented in 2003 by members of the college humor magazine the ''[[Dartmouth Jack-O-Lantern]]'', to fill the mascot void that followed the abolition of the Indian mascot in 1971. Due to its nature, the mascot was controversial on Dartmouth's campus, and it was reported on in a variety of national media. With time, however, it has become an "ingrained part of Dartmouth culture".<ref name="TheD-Stuart">{{cite(contracted; show full)
