Gateway owns Quicken Loans Arena, as well as Progressive Field and surrounding common areas, including Gateway Plaza along Ontario Avenue. Gateway’s lease agreements with the Cleveland Indians and the Cleveland Cavaliers, as revised and extended in 2004 and 2007, facilitate Gateway’s ability to continue as a good steward of these two tremendous buildings, as it has been for a generation.

MEDIA INFORMATION Media Information
MEDIA INFORMATION Media Information Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton talks to a reporter following a 115-112 overtime win in Detroit on January 9, 2020. Fred Mcleod TV Studio & Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom Media Workroom The Cavaliers organization named the combined television studio and media workroom space at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse the “Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom” on September 18, 2019 in honor of the team’s beloved 14-year play-by-play television announcer, who passed away unexpectedly on September 9, 2019. Given the indelible impact and legacy of Fred McLeod, and how he touched so many across the media and fan community, as well as the team he loved, the Fred McLeod TV Studio & Media Workroom serves as a lasting tribute to someone that was universally admired, respected and appreciated as a fellow media member and willing mentor to a countless number across the industry. Before and after every Cavaliers home game, home and visiting team media members gather in the television studio and media workroom space on the event level of Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse to hear from, and interview, the Cavaliers head coach. The space is also used for many other media events and reporting elements throughout the year by attending media covering games and events for newspapers, magazines, television, radio, websites and other digital platforms, as they write and file their respective stories and coverage inside the walls of this important area. A Strongsville, Ohio native, Fred served as the television voice of the Cavs since joining the team and FOX Sports Ohio in 2006.

[Cite as State ex rel. Cleveland Professional Football, L.L.C. v. Buehrer, 2012-Ohio-6020.] IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF OHIO TENTH APPELLATE DISTRICT State of Ohio ex rel. Cleveland : Professional Football, LLC, : Relator, No. 11AP-428 : v. (REGULAR CALENDAR) : Steve Buehrer, in his capacity as the Administrator of the Ohio Bureau of : Workers' Compensation, : Respondent. : D E C I S I O N Rendered on December 20, 2012 Kelley & Ferraro, LLP, Thomas M. Wilson, Shawn M. Acton, and Matthew A. McMonagle, for relator. Michael DeWine, Attorney General, and John R. Smart, for respondent. IN MANDAMUS ON OBJECTIONS TO THE MAGISTRATE'S DECISION KLATT, J. {¶ 1} Relator, Cleveland Professional Football, LLC ("New Gladiators") commenced this original action in mandamus seeking an order compelling respondent, the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation ("BWC") to vacate its order that transferred the experience, rights and obligations of Cleveland AFL, LLC ("Old Gladiators") to New Gladiators, after finding that New Gladiators is the successor employer of Old Gladiators. No. 11AP-428 2 {¶ 2} Pursuant to Civ.R. 53(C) and Loc.R. 13(M) of the Tenth District Court of Appeals, we referred this matter to a magistrate who issued a decision, including findings of fact and conclusions of law, which is appended hereto. The magistrate determined that the BWC did not abuse its discretion in finding that New Gladiators is a successor employer of Old Gladiators. Based on this finding, the magistrate noted that New Gladiators would be responsible for paying any workers' compensation claims relating to Old Gladiators' employees. However, the magistrate also found that the BWC abused its discretion when it transferred all of Old Gladiators' rate experience to New Gladiators because only a portion of Old Gladiators' business was transferred to New Gladiators.

Official Program
8th Annual RoboBots Competition 3rd Annual Junior Bots Competition OFFICIAL PROGRAM Saturday, April 28, 2018, Lakeland Community College Competition Format Competitions are conducted in standard double elimination format: a bot starts in the “winner’s bracket” and moves to the “elimination bracket” after a loss. A bot in the “elimination bracket” is eliminated by a second loss. The tournament ends with the winner of the elimination bracket facing the winner of the winner’s bracket. If the elimination bracket bot wins, that bot must face a rematch with the winner’s bracket bot, because two losses are required to eliminate a bot. The Battle Two bots compete in a head-to-head match following the basics of boxing. Bots are mostly remote-controlled, but autonomous control is allowed. Like boxing, the bots are given three full minutes for a round, in which either one of the bots is knocked out or the match time runs out. Three judges decide the winner. Battle Duration Matches are three minutes long of active fight time, exclusive of any time outs. Determining a Battle Winner A bot loses a match when one of the following occurs: •The bot is knocked out or cannot show sufficient mobility. •The driver of the bot surrenders/taps out. •A bot that is deemed unsafe by the referee after the match has begun is disqualified and therefore declared the loser by TKO. The match will be immediately halted and the opponent will be awarded a win. •All other matches will be decided by judges' decision. Judges' decisions are final.

WANG, JIAYI, M.S., May 2016 Hospitality and Tourism Management UNDERSTANDING CLEVELAND AS A SPORTS DESTIONATION: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF BRAND PERSONALITY THEORY (76 pp.) Director of Thesis: Phillip Wang, PhD In this globalizing world, sporting events play an important role in improving the attractiveness and competitiveness of a city. Sports tourism and sporting events are viewed as a growing niche market. This is reflected by the contribution that sports tourism brings to a destination. As a consequence of sports being attractions or activities that tourists seek to experience in the destination, it is paramount for a destination to be able to offer them. Cleveland’s continuously increasing sports offering is making the city an appealing tourist destination to wider groups of tourists. Brand personality theory provides the theoretical support for the present study. The purpose of the study is to test the brand personality framework in the context of sports tourism, explore the brand personality of Cleveland as a sports destination, and apply the theory into destination marketing.
