Cleveland vendor selling shirt with LeBron-esque Chief Wahoo
Cleveland loves both LeBron James and the Indians unconditionally.
On a night that will see James and his Cavaliers accept their NBA championship rings at Quicken Loans Arena just minutes before the Indians face the Chicago Cubs in Game 1 of the World Series across the street at Progressive Field, fans in Cleveland are scooping up gear to support both teams. One street vendor decided to combine both teams into one shirt, and created a Chief Wahoo-LeBron hybrid logo shirt.

The Indians' use of Chief Wahoo - which is officially one of the team's secondary logos - has come under fire in recent years for what some believe is a racist depiction of Native Americans.
