I grew up in Aurora, CO. A neighboring high school (Gateway, HS) had the nickname "Olympians" and their logo featured five, interlocking (black) rings. The International Olympic Committee learned of this and sued them over it. Made them change their mascot to the "Olys" and strike any use of rings and torches.

They were rivals so we all laughed about it, but it still seems like over-kill...

We played them when I was high school(~10 years ago) and they were using the Packers/Georgia G logo at that point.

We don't have any using the SMU logo that I know of, but I always found this one interesting because you don't see Cincinnati used much probably because it's hard to match the logo with the letter. I'm not sure if this school still uses it though.

The Croatan High School Cougars used the Cincinnati logo at one time. This picture might be them. It's the same colors as Croatan and the other team looks like White Oak High School from Jacksonville NC

That picture is the Canon City Tigers.

I happened across some little town in SW Pennsylvania who had painted "B" paws all over town (complete with the line underneath) and whose mascots are the Bearcats... It was homecoming so the town was all decked out.
