Champions are celebrating with champions Wednesday in Cleveland.

The Cavaliers, led by LeBron James, stunned the sports world Sunday by becoming the first team ever to rally from a 3-1 NBA Finals deficit to win the Larry O'Brien Trophy with a 93-89 victory over the Golden State Warriors.

Wednesday, the city of Cleveland gets its first championship parade in 52 years, and a trio of Ohio State champions are in attendance.

Both Meyer and Smith tweeted out photos from the plane to show their anticipation and excitement for the parade, which begins at 11 a.m. If you're curious of the route, check out Wednesday's Skull Session.

And oh yeah, Jim Brown is there too:

Meyer did an O-H-I-O with three band members before the parade got going.

Here is video of Meyer, Matta, and Smith tailing The Best Damn Band In The Land during the parade:

This, from Eleven Warriors' Kyle Jones, was the scene 10 minutes before the scheduled start of the parade.

More shots from Jones (follow him for on-site photos and videos) of the parade in Cleveland.

Meyer, Matta, and Smith all also had a chance to pose with LeBron James after the parade.
