Detroit Red Wings "Al the Octopus"

If you're a Red Wings fan, you're probably aware of Al the Octopus and the long-standing tradition of octopi attendance at Wings games. If you were at the first Red Wings vs. Nashville Predators playoffs game, then you also know about the cool new way that Al is showing his support

About a month ago, Dynamic Displays rushed a huge purple octopus through the production line. Within a couple weeks, the Red Wings' mascot took on a new shape--an inflatable one. Al the Inflatable Octopus demonstrates one of the many creative uses for inflatable products.

At the game, the inflatable octopus sank from the score boards and slowing raised his tentacles to the crowd before descending to the ice, grinning all the while. I guess he was glad to be there. And why not? His team won.

Pretty cool, huh?









Got a mascot? There are a lot of fun ways that you can increase their visibility.

Harris Bank Takes to the Skies: Corporate Mascot Roars to Life!

Brand reinforcement is an important part of advertising in today's over-saturated marketing arena.

Harris Bank took some big steps to promote their brand with a 30-foot replica of their company mascot—Hubert the Lion.

Hubert made his debut as a giant helium balloon on March 15, 2008 at the Chicago St. Patrick's Day Parade, where he performed proudly for thousands of Chicago residents and visitors. The Chicago St. Patrick's Day Parade is also broadcast live on national television.

Inflatable mascots are a great way to increase brand awareness. In addition to the giant helium variety, Dynamic Displays also produces custom cold-air rooftops and inflatable costumes.
