Papa John's apologizes for Cleveland Cavs controversy
May 4, 2008
Akron Beacon Journal: In an effort to extend an olive branch to fans of the Cleveland Cavaliers basketball team, Papa John's restaurants in the Cleveland area will offer a large one-topping carryout pizza for 23 cents. Last week, a Washington, D.C.-area Papa John's gave away T-shirts to Washington Wizards fans that carried the Papa John's logo, the word ''Crybaby'' and the number 23.
Cavaliers player LeBron James wears No. 23. Wizards center Brendan Haywood called James a crybaby after James complained about hard fouls.
