My Role
I built the concept and creative angle before being pulled to support another team, so I wasn’t involved in the final execution.

The Problem
Heading into the Women’s World Cup, the USWNT felt unstoppable, a team on the edge of a three-peat, a moment fans wanted to feel part of, not just watch from afar. Fanduel wanted to channel that hype into something fans could engage with.

But there was one problem:
The first U.S. match kicked off at 3 a.m. Eastern.

The Idea
Make Fanduel the cure for the time zone.
If the game’s in Australia but the fans are in New York, keep them awake...literally.

FanFuel: a coffee pop-up built for the sleep-deprived diehards.
Free brews. Team-colored cups. A rally point for people determined to watch history even if the sun refuses to rise.
