We’re celebrating the birthday of our most beloved mascot and best friend. If it weren’t for the little guy, we all wouldn’t be as inspired to come up with great ideas like PLAY and SHOP. Yes, he may be a little rambunctious, but it’s only because he’s full of love. It’s Odyss who keeps begging us to give double PTZ to you all, just yesterday, we caught him stuffing envelopes full of Odyss iPhone skins and sending them off to Arkansas, Japan and a whole bunch of places in between. We’re all eating cupcakes to celebrate the b-day of Odyss, and we’re pretty sure his next year is going to be even better. Get a little bit of the Odyss charm for yourself right here. And keep watching this space for more of his treats!
