The Vikings SKOL Chant and the Vikings Voyage were recognized by the Clio Awards, an esteemed international awards competition for the creative business.

According to Clios.com, the awards were “Founded in 1959 to celebrate high achievement in advertising.” The Clios “annually and throughout the year recognize the work, the agencies and the talent that push boundaries and establish new precedent.”

The Vikings SKOL Chant was a gold winner in the Clio Sports category.

The new tradition for fans – inspired by the “Vikings War Chant” in Iceland – made its debut in the 2016 Vikings home opener against the Packers, and it quickly caught on and became a recurring phenomenon at the remaining home games, fan events and more.
