Tillman, the Skateboarding English Bulldog who became an Internet celebrity, has left the Boardwalk. He was 10 years old in centripetal years.

For me this was one of the first pass-around videos of the modern era.

Aww. I may have a substantially higher center of gravity, but Tillman was fundamentally a much better skater then I ever was in my misbegotten youth.

Aw man. First Skidboot (a while ago) & now Tillman. I has a sad. Dogs don't live long enough. 😥

Aw. I saw Tillman skate at the Dodgers "Bark in the Park" game a few years back. He looked like a dog who was happy to be doing what he was doing. Happy trails, Tillman.

Now I want him to be an unlockable player in a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater game.

On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog… unless you skate.

RIP, Tilman.
