Reports of Tristan Thompson confronting Draymond Green at an ESPYs after-party have given Cleveland Cavaliers fans cause to celebrate.

One fan has decided to throw a parade at Quickens Loan Arena on Oct. 13 in honor of Thompson. As of Wednesday afternoon, more than 2,000 people had RSVP'd as "going" on Facebook.

"Parade in Cleveland on October 13th (Tristan's number) at 3:10 p.m. (For obvious reasons)," the Facebook event description reads. "We would all like to punch Draymond in the face, so we need to celebrate someone who (probably) did! Bring canned goods I guess. Go Cavs."

Sources initially told The Athletic's Marcus Thompson that Thompson confronted Green out of nowhere with a "sucker punch" at the party, but then downgraded it to "more like a shove."

The event would likely require a permit, but this is the same city that held a parade to celebrate the Cleveland Browns going 0-16 last season, so it could very well happen.
