Blizzard Convention is a reference to the annual convention BlizzCon, doubling as a joke on the frosty weather in Draenor.

Big Blizzard Bear and Baby Blizzard Bear are polar bears from special events.

Blizzard has a set of service awards for employees every five years - a sword for 5 years, shield for 10, and a ring for 15. These rewards have found their way into the game as Admiral Taylor's Greatsword, Admiral Taylor's Shield, Admiral Taylor's Loyalty Ring

It’s with a great deal of joy that we celebrate Blizzard’s 25th Anniversary. In February of 1991, our founders came together to make video games, and it wouldn’t be long before they began work on the first new world built entirely by Blizzard Entertainment: Azeroth.

The many stories and varied types of gameplay that have taken place on Azeroth (and later, Draenor) have never stopped coming. The history of Warcraft and the history of Blizzard Entertainment are fully intertwined, with each passing year falling into a unique Warcraft era for players. Those who started in with Warcraft eight years ago, for instance, started during the Burning Crusade. Those who started twelve years ago started during the Reign of Chaos era.

However long you’ve been with us, we hope you accept our heartiest thanks and gratitude for all you’ve done to help us expand the excitement and wonder of these magical worlds. We’re going to continue to explore them with you for a very long time to come.

What, we don't even get a party favor after the millions of dollars we've given you?Comment by VederiaHappy Birthday Blizzard!Comment by inomissHappy Birthday BlizzComment by cellscribeHere’s to the crazy ones. The Alliance. The Horde. The Magic makers. The perky pugs and the squashed Gnomes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the trolls. You can nerf them, disagree with them, smash or surrender to them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they have things, purple mythic things. They push the many races forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see Heroes. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who will rule it!

Long live Azeroth and Blizzard

(with apologies to the folk at Apple, please do not sue me ;)Comment by KrayOfKhazMany happy returns Blizz!

Happy Birthday BlizzardComment by RexcoonExcellent recap of an epic organization. Great video.Comment by psychokiller55The girl's voice is super annoying. I want to watch the whole thing but replace the girl. She sounds like someone that would only play wow to do pet battle and tame pets as a hunter.Comment by SolivarnikThank you, Blizzard, for being a part of my childhood, when no one was around.Comment by InterestHappy 25th, Blizzard.
