In case you didn’t hear, Y&R global CCO Tony Granger and his crew got some love from the 12-year award outfit that is YoungGuns International (not to be confused with ADC Young Guns), which has bestowed the “2011 Digital Agency of the Year” honors upon the WPP operation. The agency says that its New York office’s “Airwalk Popup Store” collaboration with GoldRun (watch Venice Beach, CA version above) played a major part in helping the YoungGuns crew come to its decision.

From what we’ve been told, YoungGuns will be coming to New York later this month/early February to throw a party and celebrate the honor. So, how do we get on the guest list? FYI, here’s a link to 2011 YG winners and finalists here (be warned: PDF files abound).
