It’s safe to say that Cleveland Cavaliers playoff fever took a small toll on productivity while adding to morale Wednesday at Goodyear’s global headquarters.
A Cavs pop-up store in the Akron tire maker’s main entrance courtyard off Innovation Way attracted hundreds — if not more than 1,000 — of Goodyear employees, many of whom stood in line more than an hour to buy Cavs “Defend The Land” gear and other apparel.
In particular, people shopped for the latest wine-and-gold clothing under a new co-branding arrangement with Goodyear. They also took pictures with Cavalier Girls dance team members and shot basketballs for a chance to win a Cavs T-shirt.
