  • No Anvil Awarded for Best Advertising Campaign

    April 15th, 2013 / Comments (5)

    The AdRodeo Anvil Awards Gala has come and gone again. But this year there was something missing: an award for best advertising campaign.

    Apparently the judges felt that none of the entries were worth the hardware.

    Best in Show went to ZGM for their outstanding work on Distress Center.

    We love AdRodeo. Seeing people and hearing all the gossip. But this year's buzz wasn't all smiles. People are questioning how relevant the club has remained.

    With up and coming industry events like AdDrinx and Digital Alberta, AdRodeo is beginning to look frail with only 2 annual events of note.

    What did you think of AdRodeo's award show this year?
