The term "HOG"
#14
OK, so why was the mascot a pig ?
It would seem logical that the term HOG was given to Harleys first and the team adopted the pig as a mascot to parade around after a win. To rub in the face of those who called them HOGs.
Just guessing.
"a non-riding co-worker asked me today if I had my hog garaged for the winter. "
'No, you wife will remain free for the winter' Ba-dum

You know, I saw that happen yesterday also and I think it was Iceman. Maybe his real name is Mr. Smith?

Story about the pig mascot and racing is the true story. The Harley tourguide at the Steel Toe engine plant tour gave us the facts on that. The racing team actually did have a nick name which I cant recall, but the fans and other racers dropped that name and started calling them HOGS because of the pig.
