Treated to a steamy 100 degree humid game at the Jake, a 2 hour rainstorm that dumped 6+" on downtown followed by exceptionally clear skies, and a hot night of picture taking, beer, and some incredible buffalo wings (something hard to find in my city for some reason).
Sorry to MayDay that we couldn't get together. Next time!
The Hyatt Arcade was a beautiful if quirky hotel.
About 30 seconds later the skies opened up for the next two hours...
Luckily my hotel was around the corner...
Wahoo!

And I'm surprised the Indian's symbol hasn't gone away yet. It might be loved and it's intended in an innocent way, but a lot of people consider it racist, and to some degree they're right.

Agreed. Get rid of it.
BTW, what's the deal-io with the pic of the Pirates and Reds mascots? Was there an NL Central mascot convention going on at the Jake?
Fantastic shots! Sorry about the rain - it's like I say about most Cleveland weather - "It builds character, son!"
I'm amazed you got not only this amazing shot of a few bridges in the Flats, but also downtown Lakewood (inner-ring 'burb) in the background! Next time you're in town, I owe you a beer or three!
Sweet, I love my neighbor to the northwest, but hate his football team.
Its a perfect love-hate relationship we got going on.
I feel pity for the team founded by Al Lerner. They are as big a joke as the Pirates. Now the two teams Paul Brown founded are a different story (Rats & Bungles). Grrrrrrrrrrr!

They can follow Stanford University's route and replace their mascot with a ridiculous looking tree. Alas, great photos of Cleveland plinko.
