I believe the last time they won something nationally/globally was the VOTE campaign from a few years ago. And I agree with them beating their chests. From what I've heard, they've literally laughed at people who were trying to interview at their shop.

It's a changing of the guard. For me, Mono is the best agency in town. Interested to see what kind of work comes out of BDM. And Brew. As for Colle, while I really dig their work (especially their design and art direction) they need to do something on the big stage. Everything they do now seems kinda fake. Most of their entries in this year's ad show seemed like they were for...this year's ad show. And from what I've heard, they're a little too happy to beat their chests about it. True, true.

Most ended up at CME. Does anyone know what Minneapolis ranks in the ad industry. I once heard we were like 4th or 5th. http://duckduckgrayduck.wordpress.com/ When I was in college in the 1990’s all my Ad classmates wanted to work at Fallon or Martin Williams.

It just so happens that all of Minneapolis' agencies had it at once. But I think they'll rebound nicely. Carmichael just won Subaru. Fallon seems set in the right direction... finally. Don't know much about Martin Williams. There are some great smaller shops like Mono, Olson and Colle McVoy doing great things (sometimes even better than the ones mentioned above).
