Cleveland parties for the Cavs as Orlando series gets under way


Detroit Pistons? Check. Atlanta Hawks? Done.

It's been easy going for the Cleveland Cavaliers so far in the NBA playoffs. So easy that getting worked up for the games has been a bit of a challenge, says party promoter Arnold Hines.

"They've just breezed through the playoffs," says Hines, who's hosted countless postgame basketball parties over the years. "But people are getting more excited with them playing Orlando."

At 8 Friday, Hines will throw a viewing-and-after-party at Sunset Lounge, 1382 West Ninth St., in Cleveland's Warehouse District, 216-531-0001. DJ K-Nyce and DJ Majette will spin. Proper attire. $10.


At 10 p.m. Thursday, May 28, the after-party action hits Anatomy, 1299 West Ninth Street, in the Warehouse District, 216-363-1113. DJ Steph Floss and DJ Fresh will spin. $10.

If you're looking for a pep rally . . . the Cavs will throw a Fan Fest at 6 p.m. Friday on Gateway Plaza, between The Q and Progressive Field.

The Cavs also will host a viewing party at 8:30 p.m. Sunday at The Q when they play in Orlando. Free vouchers are available at area Papa John's pizza shops.
