A bunch of Southern California area Blaze Pizza locations are welcoming LeBron James to the Lakers with a LA-Bron Free Pizza party, which seems cool – except for the fact that they clearly didn’t realize that there are plenty of Lakers fans in the Coachella Valley.
Participating Blaze Pizza locations from LA to OC to Riverside are offering free pizza on Tuesday, July 10 between 2 pm and 5 pm to welcome King James to the Lakers.
Los Angelesβare you ready for the King of all pizza parties?! We're celebrating @KingJames arrival in LA with free pizzas on 7/10! Stop by any of our LA locations between 2-5pm for your free pie!
Let's welcome #LAbron to LA the only way we know how! https://t.co/DPcb0rBvQH pic.twitter.com/Lu3p1V5L00

Guessing it was easy to get the promotion approved as LeBron James is an investor and franchisee of Blaze Pizza.
Somebody in LA should throw a King-sized party to celebrate #LAbron…what do you guys think? @KingJames pic.twitter.com/wYI3HCYObD

You can check out the list of participating restaurants here – with the closest being in Riverside, meaning Lakers fans in the Coachella Valley will have to pay for the pizza despite having to pay more in gas money to see a game live at Staples Center.
