STATESBORO — On Wednesday, Barstool Southern posted a picture on their Instagram of what appeared to be a Starship food delivery robot flipped over after being involved in an accident with a car.

Barstool later posted an additional image with the text, “Fly High King” and an image of Starship robot appearing flying at heaven’s steps. The photo also named the robot, marked it’s birth year and year of passing.

What followed was a memorial in front of Watson Hall and a late-night vigil that dozens of Georgia Southern students attended. One attendee even held a sign saying, “Defund Cars.”

Georgia Southern administrators got in on the fun, too.

“My sincerest condolences to the robot family,” tweeted Shay Little, vice president for student affairs. “We lost one of our own this week @GSU_DSA”

Condolences were also shared on Barstool Southern’s Instagram.
