Do the Penguins Defy Ordinary?

Defy_OrdinaryA new video hit the Pittsburgh Penguins Facebook FanPage… click here to have a look (runs 2:22). It positions the marketing focus for the team’s 2009/2010 season.

This is not exactly what I expected to see, but it is always nice to be surprised. True to social media good form, the feedback from the fans has mixed reviews. Take a moment to review the comments and you’ll see some of the additional value that spaces like this provide organizations that are interested to gauage their market’s opinions and discussions.

What do you think of this alternative positioning – Does the organization or product defy the ordinary?
