You’ll recall Joakim Noah making his infamous crack about the city of Cleveland in 2010. During a presser Noah joked about how he’s never heard anyone say they’re excited to go to Cleveland on vacation. He’s never heard of anyone being excited about visiting the metropolis on the shores of Lake Erie.
Well, maybe he never went down to the lakeshore where all the tourist sites are: Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, the steamer, the submarine, museums etc.
Take it from me, I actually did go to Cleveland on vacation in 2011. Took a Megabus there and back for $32.
Anyway, Joakim Noah has changed his mind about the appeal of Cleveland this time around. Watch below:
Like that hilarious YouTube viral video of 2009 sang…”fun times in Cleveland again, still Cleveland. Come on down to Cleveland town everyone….”
Yes, we’re quoting “Hastily Made Cleveland Tourism Video 2”
Of course, Joakim Noah and the Bulls have been eliminated by a Lebron James led team in three of the past four years, so I’m not all that Bullish on their chances here. Yes, even with Kevin Love gone and J.R. Smith suspended.
