True fact: The ears of the bulldogs were originally pointed straight up, however many mechanics had complained that the sharp pointed ears were cutting their hands, which caused the company to revise the design of the dog in order to prevent this from happening.

Also, the original logo was cut from a bar of soap while the owner of Mack (I believe it was the owner) was in the hospital for some reason.

Learned both of things things several years ago, so it may be a little rusty.
