The Hogettes were a group of fans of the Washington Redskins (the franchise is now known as the Washington Commanders) who wore women's dresses, garden party hats, and pig snouts. The group was founded in 1983 by Michael Torbert and became a regular fixture at Redskins games for nearly 30 years. When the group announced its retirement following the 2012 season, it had over 20 members, including three who have been featured in an exhibit at the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

  • The Hogettes fueron un grupo de doce aficionados de los Washington Redskins, los cuales asistían a los juegos utilizando vestidos floreados, sombreros de mujer y hocicos de cerdo por dos propósitos: ovacionar a su equipo favorito de la NFL y recaudar dinero para caridad. Este grupo fue formado en 1983 por Michael Torbert y se convirtió en parte integrante de los juegos como locales de los Washington Redskins. El grupo tenía doce miembros activos y quince exmiembros, incluyendo a tres de ellos que fueron seleccionados al Salón de la Fama como parte del Salón de los Aficionados que es patrocinado por VISA.

  • The Hogettes were a group of fans of the Washington Redskins (the franchise is now known as the Washington Commanders) who wore women's dresses, garden party hats, and pig snouts. The group was founded in 1983 by Michael Torbert and became a regular fixture at Redskins games for nearly 30 years. When the group announced its retirement following the 2012 season, it had over 20 members, including three who have been featured in an exhibit at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The group retains a high profile largely because of their outrageous costumes, but also because of their frequent work for charitable organizations. The Hogettes have appeared in a national advertising campaign for Visa, and they provide support for many charities, including Children's Miracle Network, Ronald McDonald House, and March of Dimes. They raised over US$100 million for these and other charitable causes. (en)
