LeBron Rocking Black ZLVI During Concert for Obama with Jay-Z »

On October 29, on his home court, LeBron James tried to swing some votes toward a guy who loves to play basketball nearly as much as he does. The NBA superstar hosted a free concert by Grammy-winning hip hop star Jay-Z for Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, a former high school hoop star who still enjoys lacing up his sneakers and playing ball when he isn’t on the campaign trail. Nearly 20,000 fans filled Quicken Loans Arena for the “Last Chance for Change” rally, which began after Obama’s 30-minute TV ad was shown on a giant screen above the stage. Wearing a black leather jacket, baseball cap and huge diamond chain in the shape of Ohio and of course his newest shoes Zoom LeBron VI, James encouraged the crowd to participate in next week’s election. “I want everybody in here, moms, dads, aunts, uncles to get out and vote,” James said. “November 4th is the most important day of our lives.” Thanks to abt for this find.
