Browns greats Brown, Byner, Kosar attend Cavs' championship parade
Former Cleveland Browns stars Jim Brown, Earnest Byner, and Bernie Kosar were among the hundreds of thousands in attendance for the Cleveland Cavaliers' championship parade Wednesday.
Brown, perhaps the greatest Cleveland athlete of all time not named LeBron James and a member of the last Cleveland team to win a championship before the Cavaliers, wasn't just a spectator - he got to ride in the parade:
A great day in Cleveland. The people are happy...the @cavs made history... Lebron's legacy is set..! #onlyinamerica pic.twitter.com/e5P9GiH3OR

Kosar, who was hailed as a hero during his time with the Browns but failed to deliver the city a championship, also found his way onto a float:

Byner, whose fumble in the 1987 AFC Championship Game is one of many lowlights for the Browns over the years, showed up for the occasion in familiar attire:
I love how Earnest Byner is wearing his OWN JERSEY to the Cavs' parade: pic.twitter.com/JHdO8hMq2a #PutSomeRespekOnMyName
