I plan on driving up from NC on Monday night so I can be there Tuesday. The two main things I want to do are to watch the game outside of the arena & try to attend a live taping of First Take. If the series is over in 6 then I'll drive back the next day, otherwise I'm staying until Saturday morning. From what I've read online, I should check out:

Food:
Melt Bar & Grilled
B Spot Burgers
The Clevelander
Walnut Wednesday
Lucky's Cafe
Hot Sauce Williams
Happy Dog
Bialy's Bagels
Sokolowski
Flannery's Pub
Panini's Bar & Grill
Grumpy's Cafe

Attractions:
Big Fun Toy Store
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
Society Lounge
A Christmas Story House
Beachwood Mall
Chucklefck Comedy Club
78th Street Studios
Horseshoe Casino
House of Blues
St. Vincent St. Mary High School (just ride by)
Football Hall of Fame

Any suggestions as to what else I should check out while I'm there?

Also, it'd be cool to meet some Cleveland NTers if anyone wants to hang out!

Head over to Ohio City on West 25th.  That's where great lakes brewery is at, among others.  Great food and atmosphere.  Then head over to East 4th before it gets too mobbed (I heard you could barely move around gametime last night)

Not sure where you're staying, but I would stay at the Hotel in the 9 Building.

Also, note that I did not cross off Society Lounge.  Hands down the best drinks I've ever had are made there.  

Enjoy our city, I know i do.

^Thanks for the suggestions!

Anyone else? Maybe a shoe store I should check out while I'm there?

Also, anyone use stubhub? I'm planning on grabbing a ticket for game 6 since the prices went down A LOT. My question is, should I buy now or try to hold out until right before the game?
 
Should have saved that gas money for a ticket to the Bay Area. Wayyy more to see and do. Must be a serious cav's fan or something.
 
Haha naw, not a Cavs fan. I look at it like this; Cleveland hasn't won a championship in a major sport in almost 50 years. If they win the championship, I imagine the city is going to be on another level. If they lose after getting so close... well, I imagine the fan reactions will be pretty entertaining as well :lol:
 
I just spoke with Joakim Noah, he suggested going to the airport and taking a flight back home.

Errythang he/she said. SVSM is just a regular church/school near downtown Akron. Not worth driving 40 mins out of the way for. HOF is abt an hour south of Cle too. Villa is a cool show spot but don't expect them to have exclusives sitting on the shelves.
