Lobo Marketing Wins Four Awards

Lobo Marketing just swept the NAACMA awards with four wins — two Golds for Affinity Group Marketing and Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth, another Gold for Game Day Promotion, and a Silver for Fundraising. Behind it all? A record-breaking year for Mountain West attendance, fueled by Lobo Football’s 57.1% attendance surge and a stellar 9-4 season that earned them a bowl berth. The Affinity Group win came from fan-first moves like free kids’ tickets, $4 concessions, and the viral “Louie Lane” tailgate spoof starring Coach Eck. The Retro Game Gold? Pure 90s nostalgia — complete with music, uniforms, a replica living room, and vintage video games. And the Silver? The “Real Ones” campaign, born from a coach’s speech and turned into a season-ticket powerhouse through team-wide effort. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
