Plameiras has two mascots. The official one is the periquito, chosen in 1940. The other one is the pig, which was an insult to the Italians on WWII. Later in 1960, the corinthian's fans used this pig as an insult to the Palmeiras fans. in 1986, in a game against Santos the Palmeiras fans adopted the pig as their second mascot by singing this phrase: "E dá-lhe porco, e dá-lhe porco, olê, olê, olê."
