Chiefs TE Travis Kelce joins his brother Jason as an honoree at Cleveland Cavaliers game

#Chiefs TE Travis Kelce joined his brother Jason an honoree at a Cleveland #Cavaliers game this week.

The day after Jason Kelce announced his retirement from the Philadelphia Eagles and the NFL, he joined his brother Travis back in Ohio. At Tuesday’s Cleveland Cavaliers game, the Kansas City Chiefs star was honored in his hometown.

Cleveland fans walked into Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse for the anticipated NBA matchup of the Cavaliers against the Boston Celtics and a special Kelce brothers bobblehead giveaway. Travis and Jason Kelce appeared in black Cavs’ Statement jerseys at the arena, including their signature NFL jersey numbers.

The Cavs Team Shop had exclusive Kelce brother-themed merchandise available for sale, with some proceeds being donated to Heights Schools Foundation Initiatives.

Jason and Travis graduated from Cleveland Heights High School and stayed in Ohio for college, where they were stars at the University of Cincinnati. Before tip-off, NBA All-Star Donovan Mitchell greeted Travis and acknowledged him on the big screen in the arena alongside Jason.

The success of their New Heights podcast and incredible NFL careers have put the Kelce brothers in a different realm of celebrity. They are respected for their field work but equally appreciated for their commitment to their community and fans.

Why the Red Sox are giving away Kiké Hernández bobbleheads despite trading him to the Dodgers

The Red Sox are giving away Kiké Hernández bobbleheads, even though he got traded two weeks ago.

The Boston Red Sox are set to give away Kiké Hernández bobbleheads on Wednesday night, but there’s a catch.

Hernández got traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers two weeks ago, which makes this a very unusual bobblehead giveaway for Boston fans.

The Red Sox reportedly still wanted to keep the World Baseball Classic-inspired Hernández bobblehead giveaway on the schedule even though he got traded to the Dodgers. The reasoning behind it is actually pretty cool.

MassLive spoke to Red Sox chief marketing officer Adam Grossman to learn more about the Hernández bobblehead decision, partly involving a WBC-based fan vote that named Hernández one of the Boston bobblehead picks.

It also had to do with giving Red Sox fans the chance to own a collector’s bobblehead.

Chiefly, Grossman explained, the Red Sox thought the right thing to do was to go ahead with the giveaway as scheduled in an effort to not deprive fans of a collector’s item. The one caveat? Making sure Hernández, who now plays thousands of miles away after a rocky final season in Boston, gave the promotion his blessing.

“We touched base with him after he was traded to tell him we’ve got this coming up,” Grossman said. “We were inclined to give it away and continue to go through with it as long as he was comfortable with it. He was comfortable.

“For his time here, he had a close relationship with fans. I think fans felt similarly. So we felt like, for all those reasons, why not give it out to the fans?”

Hernández also left a really cool message for Red Sox fans on the bobblehead box, thanking them for their support.

 

While Red Sox fans might not get to cheer Hernández on the field, they’ll get to commemorate his time with the team with a really cool memento.

White Sox recreate iconic moments from 2021 season for hilarious bobblehead giveaway

Bobbleheads: The ultimate MLB status symbol

If there’s one thing the Chicago White Sox have an abundance of in their clubhouse, it’s personalities.

Baseball is notorious for its goofballs and jokesters in the dugout, but the Sox seem to have a never-ending supply. From Eloy Jimenez to Liam Hendriks, Chicago is sure to entertain you win or lose.

But the best moments with this team aren’t the ones that pop out in the box score. It’s Luis Robert sprinting 100 feet to steal a pop fly from an incredulous Jimenez in left field.

Its Hendriks screaming all sorts of obscenities on the mound—both to psych out any batter he faces and pump himself up.

It’s Tim Anderson turning a walk-off home run at the Field of Dreams game into an iconic celebration.

Didn’t catch any of those moments as they happened live? Not to worry, the White Sox have immortalized them all in the only way baseball knows how to—with copious bobbleheads.

Seriously, look at how amazing these are.

We can only imagine what epic moments the Sox have in store this season, but Chicago’s marketing team is more than ready to capitalize on whatever they are.
