T-Shirt Company Banking On Thursday Victory For Heat
The Heat are trying to steam roll over the Chicago Bulls. In the mean time, 'Champion' is already being steamed on shirts predicting Miami wins the NBA Eastern Conference Championship on Thursday night.
The shirts are hot off the presses and heading to Chicago so the Big Three and the entire Heat team can sport them after Game 5.
"For right now they're going to American Airlines Arena and some are going to Chicago after they're victorious tomorrow," Adam Cohen, Vice President for Atlas Embroidery and Screen Printing, said.
The shirts and the wins all started with that now infamous announcement from Lebron James: "I'm taking my talents to South Beach."
"I believe we ran about 80 thousand shirts over that next 18 hour period," Cohen said.
If it's up to Heat fans, Atlas will have to continuing pumping out thousands of shirts for the next few weeks
"We haven't seen demand like this down here since we won our first championship," Cohen said.
And they may be jumping the buzzard, but it looks like they're banking on the Miami Heat bringing home the championship trophy too.
"I actually got some graphics already for some championship merchandise," Cohen said.
If Lebron, Wade, Bosh and the all-star Miami Heat team beat the Chicago Bulls on Thursday, you'll be able to get your hands on the t-shirts at local stores Friday morning.
