Cleveland fans upset with the planned removal of the giant LeBron James banner across from Quicken Loans Arena can take some comfort in knowing that Sherwin-Williams Co. will put it back up this fall.
The company announced in May that it would be replace the 10-story-tall James banner with a red, white and blue one that says, “This Land is Our Land.” A company spokesman says that banner is meant to celebrate Sherwin-Williams’ 150th anniversary and to welcome visitors to the Republican National Convention.
Upset fans recently created a petition drive on Change.org urging the company not to remove the James banner after he led the Cavaliers to the city’s first major sports title in 52 years.
