Bad Idea: Wearing a LeBron Heat Jersey in Cleveland

Had security not stepped in, this dude’s night could’ve turned out a lot worse than it did. From the AP: “A fan wearing a Miami Heat jersey of LeBron James drew the ire of the crowd at a Cleveland Indians game and was escorted out of the ballpark. Fans in the left-field bleachers chanted obscenities and pointed at the man Wednesday night during the sixth inning of the Indians’ 8-0 loss to the New York Yankees. Hundreds of fans joined in before security led the man out of Progressive Field. As he left, some fans followed him toward the gate with more derisive chants.”

    I’m wondering why a grown man is wearing another grown mans jersey?

    I was five rows behind that guy last night and as a Yankee fan from Ohio, I felt for him. Nobody has reported this but he was actually minding his own business and taking the jeers well until an idiot fan hit his beer, purposely spilling it on his jersey. That is what started all of the problems because up until that point there were only boos directed toward the LBJ fan. I actually think he handled it pretty well considering. His girlfriend was the one that got physical with another (male) fan before they were escorted out.

    I really hate lebron, but I really hope he drops like 60 on the cavs in his first game back in cleveland. the 13th amendment passed cleveland fans! there’s no more slavery!

    Eboy,
    I’m not an undercover hater! But that was hilarious though. Nice try. Not everyone is like you. I can pick a team and stick with them through thick and thin and not hate on every other team because I hate a certain player. How stupid is that? And all your so called reasons as to why yu hate Kobe is just like every other idiot out there! it makes no sense and it just covers up or tries to cover up the fact that you hate him! Look, If the heat win 5 rings great! More power to them. You see, Eboy, unlike you I’m a basketball fan and I want to see great basketball. If the Heat play great basketball and they win, great for the league and great for the fans. Did you understand that or should I dumb it down some more for your dumbass?

    The reason why people think that they, individually, are as much a part of the spectacle as the players who actually play the sport: Everybody thinks they are special, everybody thinks they deserve, everybody is a star.

    The fans in The US of A are just fine…a bit idiotic at times but overall just fine. With that said, I take a small exception with any pity that might be felt for us but I do pity athletes in other countries who get “real” death threats and things thrown at them on a regular basis.

    Eboy, man-o-man, ignorance is truly prevelant on these posts. I guess if you feel that way about Philly fans, its safe to say that Miami has the worse people in the country, since more cocaine comes out there than any other place in the country, and we all know what cocaine has done to both urban and rural America. Hmmmm, is that a fair generalization, Eboy? Fat Lever, some people can be described as educated dummies, i.e. Eboy, they know everything about nothing.

  • Robb

    Bron fans/former fans. As stupid as him.

  • http://HUFSF.COM Waylonakolipse

    Cleveland is for haters. That’s why Bron left because Ohio sucks, Cincinati excluded.

  • BigNate

    Ok the guy wearing the jersey, clearly deserved to be howled by the fans if he was dumb enough to wear that jersey in a city that pretty much rioted after lebron left, however that does not excuse the people that followed this man out the gate because that is just too far.

  • d

    cleveland will never ever win a nba championship…sorry cleveland you guys should be angry at the owner and not lebron..they messed it up, they never tried to bring in somebody to help LBJ to win a ring…if you wanna be mad at somebody then it should the owner of the cavs..

    i watched the video again courtesy of mark321′s links and actually where’s the stupidity out there? that’s a normal fan reaction to rival/hated player/team… and if i’m right is there a guy wearing a dwight howard’s shirt? why didn’t he get booed? lol…

    I think Eboy has gone off the deep end. I would defend those Pistons fans for the ‘Malice at the Palace’ but I can’t. However, Detroit fans, by and large, are some of the greatest in the country. For all 4 major sports teams in the area.

  • scott lawson

    It turns out (of course) the guy is… wait for it… wait for it… annnnnd…. a Yankee Fan!

  • http://www.slamonline.com/ niQ

    It’s kind of obvious the dude did this on purpose just to get some media exposure.

  • truthteller

    niQ, this is the kind of stuff Eboy would do!

  • Exile

    @3027. Thanks for the intel. The clips lead you to think he was asking for it.

  • Exile

    niQ. Read the post from 3027.
