Hell bring a few more to the party and have a stampede. Food pork themes. Vegan pig. Cups/mugs that dual as pig noses when you raise your glasses. Stuffed animal pig toys. Oinking crowd noises.

Hail to the Pigskins
Hail Victory
Hogs on the Warpath
Fight for Ol' DC

Why does this work well as a football mascot? Hogs are agressive animals. Smart too. Always getting dirty and throwing their weight around. A tough mascot to exemplify a tough football team.

From a PR standpoint, the franchise could befriend PETA and throw money at animal welfare groups that focus on pig farms. Raise awareness about feral swine and invasive species.
I would honestly love the Hogs. But I don't think it's happening. Didn't receive much support online, and would be easy to joke on.
