Coca-Cola Co.
Comments: The design of this display features an interactive hockey game on top of an ice cooler. The lid replicates a hockey arena, complete with an ice rink, fans in the stands and players. The Surge and NHL logos were featured prominently on the ice and on the side of the lid. This created the awareness of the Surge/NHL alliance.
