Browns reveal five finalists to become official 'Dawg Pound' logo

The Browns have been harped on for their helmet logo for some time now, but the team is finally getting creative with the help of its fans.

Cleveland is holding a vote for fan-made logos to become the official logo of the "Dawg Pound" fan section and it's down to the final five.

This is the most popular design thus far, but things might be taking a turn as it's the third-most liked design on the Browns' Twitter page.

Here is the second-most liked design.

Here is the most-liked design followed by the other two finalists. 

Cleveland announced the start of the contest in April. Fans submitted their original designs to the team website which holds a vote to determine the favorite.

"We are fired up to see what ideas our fans come up with and the thought of their logo potentially being selected is a key element in our commitment to creating an amazing experience for our fanbase," executive vice president J.W. Johnson said in a statement. 

The "Dawg Pound" was originally a reference to the Browns' defense but later became associated with the fanbase. In 1999, team officials named the east end sections of the stadium the "Dawg Pound."

The final round of the contest will be on May 10 and close in early June.
