Just so we are clear, that's downtown Akron. While there is little difference between the two geographically and...well, I suppose culturally, there is a massive difference in their love of LeBron.
The people in Akron, and everyone in Akron, have always and will always love him. Hell, I went to the University of Akron, and I grew an appreciation with how much he helps that school on a daily basis.
It's one of the few things I never really got upset in regards to LeBron. Dude has always been amazing to Akron. Always.
