    This week, we spoke with Farrah, the creator of the "Release the Fleece" campaign. This fan-led petition became one of the catalysts behind fans being able to preorder the official Heated Rivalry Canadian fleece. We talked about the journey leading up to last week's preorder, the incredible community support behind the campaign, and why it was always about more than just a fleece.
