NBA fans from Philadelphia line up for new LeBron merch
PHILADELPHIA —
NBA fans in Philadelphia are getting their hands on brand new LeBron James merchandise.
Less than 48 hours after the superstar announced his move to the 76ers, fans lined up on Sunday morning at one store.
The Mitchell and Ness Flagship Store debuted a $55 T-Shirt featuring James, the Sixers logo and his signature chalk toss.
Other fans chose to customize hats with his number 23.
“I took a 6 a.m. flight to get here, be in line. I was the third person to be in line to get one of the T-Shirts,” said Erin Statmore, an out-of-town fan who flew in from Naples, Florida.
