One more "cute" idea that came to me last night. Here is a very
poor attempt at it by yours truly; keep in mind I'm not a graphics
artist. This image is for illustration purposes only!

Can you picture a bunch of these on a meeting table? If that image
does not scream "Stampede!", I don't know what does. =)
Again, a great conversation starter.
Cheers,
--patrick
p.s., Although, I for one do not condone this, those who are bent on
bashing the competitor product, can simply put a sticker-image of a
certain other mammal under this cup! ;) a DIY mod if you will.
