CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Welcome to the City of Champions!

More than a few fans sent me emails with that theme after the Cavaliers won the NBA title.

That came right after the Lake Erie Monsters won the American Hockey League's Calder Cup. Then came the Cavs title won in Oakland as the first place Indians were in the middle of a 14-game winning streak.

But what made Cleveland special was how the fans celebrated.

Unlike some cities where they break windows and flip over cars the night of a championship, Cleveland took to the streets for one big Hug-In.
