Heat fans take parting shot at LeBron James by purchasing billboard in Akron

These fans don’t want LeBron to forget the city that gave him two rings.

There’s a new billboard in Akron about LeBron James, and maybe the Cavaliers star won’t appreciate this one quite as much as past advertisements. Sponsored by Miami-area radio personality Dan LeBatard, the sign reads “You’re Welcome, LeBron” and is signed “Sincerely, Miami Heat Fans.”

Extra credit to the group for choosing Comic Sans as the font, that was a nice touch.
