Browns Wave White Flag On Controversial Promotion

The Browns “waved the white flag on their white-flag giveaway” for today’s game against the Steelers. In the Ticketmaster-sponsored promo, the Browns “planned to give every fan in attendance an inflatable white flag with the Browns name and an orange helmet on it.” However, the symbol of surrender was “met with great resistance from fans and players.” Browns VP/Media Relations Neal Gulkis said, "It is something that was intended to be fun for our fans and that they could rally around, and we regret that some didn't perceive it that way" (CLEVELAND.com, 11/24).
