Spot

Every NHL team has a unique goal horn. Nobody knew that. The Wild's lighthouse fog horn didn't just sound different. It looked different. That was the call hiding in plain sight — distinctive, ownable, and impossible to ignore once you heard it.

Rally

Heed the Call. TV and radio used the iconic fog horn to literally call true fans back. The lighthouse became the visual anchor across every channel. New season ticket members received a limited-edition print signed poster.
