The 2001 GRANDY $50,000 Winner

Each year, the ANDY jury selects one campaign that is deemed to be the absolute best of the best, the single representative of all the work entered in the show that year. This is the GRANDY. The fact that it could win in any show is one thing. The fact that it took first prize in the World's Toughest Show is a testament to its brilliance. And $50,000 ain't too shabby, either.
