Blaze Pizza is doing a LeBron ???? Free Pizza ???? promo in So Cal, just not in the desert ????

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.

Guessing it was easy to get the promotion approved as LeBron James is an investor and franchisee of Blaze Pizza.

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.
