Here at W+K we fill our agency receptions with pictures of our people, not trophies or gongs. So when we do shout about winning an award you'll know it really means something to us.

And today is one of those days for our friends in Japan. Last night W+K Tokyo won both the Grand Prix and the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communicaions Awards at the ACC awards. Loosely translated it means the Japanese ad industry and officialdom decreed the Nike Baseball 'Pledge' TV spot the best work produced in Japan in the past 12 months.

It's the first time Wieden+Kennedy has won an ACC Grand Prix and we think it pays testament to the talent, intelligence and crazy hard work put in by everyone who touched that project. W+K Tokyo Team Nike: we salute you.

If you read Japanese, you can see the official announcement here.
