Franklin’s Management of Cleveland Draws in Crowd With Les Is More Sports Panel

On Feb. 19, 100 guests gathered to Franklin’s Management of Cleveland’s Cleveland, Ohio, BWW® to listen in on a sports panel hosted by some of Cleveland’s top sports radio talk show personalities.

The event started at 7:30 a.m. and was hosted by Les Levine and the Cleveland Jewish News. The event consisted of a panel discussion on various Cleveland sports topics and a Q&A session about the Cleveland Browns, Cavaliers, Indians and Ohio State Buckeyes. “Buffalo Wild Wings® has been a sponsor of the event for several years, and this was the first year we hosted the event at the restaurant,” said Colleen Flowers, director of marketing with Franklin’s Management of Cleveland, owned by Jerry Franklin Jr.

The Cleveland Jewish News provided baked goods, fruit, coffee and juice for the attendees, and each guest received a Buffalo Wild Wings-themed tote bag with a coupon to be used on their next visit. “Even though the event was held before we were open, the buzz was out, and we saw several guests come back that day to dine with us,” said Flowers.

The main highlight of the event included a special guest appearance from a retired NBA player. “Brad Sellers, who played with the Chicago Bulls in the late 1980s, is now the mayor of Warrensville Heights and spoke on the panel,” said Flowers. “It was great to see our mayor support another wonderful community event.”
