For the next couple of weeks, Goodyear is all in on “Akron Born.”
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. has conceived of a way to celebrate Akron natives LeBron James and Stephen Curry in the NBA finals, local childbirth and the company’s blimps.
Bear down, er, with me. This will soon make sense.
Parents of children born in Akron-area hospitals starting at midnight this Thursday, through June 19 (the date for game 7 of the finals, if it gets that far) will receive, courtesy of Goodyear:
• A set of four tires.
• An “Akron Born” onesie for their child.
