What better way to honor and celebrate a championship than by sculpting a ton of butter for the ultimate tribute?

Three massive butter sculptures honoring this season’s NBA champion Cleveland Cavaliers were unveiled on Tuesday at the Ohio State Fair. While none of the sculptures depicted LeBron James or Kyrie Irving, one trophy was made in the mold of mascots Moondog and Sir C.C. If you didn’t know the Cavs had any mascots, now you know (and knowing is half the battle). The third sculpture was of the Larry O’Brien Trophy, the NBA’s championship prize.

As noted by Cleveland.com, this is the second year in a row the state fair showed off butter sculptures honoring a champion. Last year it was Ohio State’s football team receiving the high-calorie honor, after coming off a national championship run in the inaugural College Football Playoff. Could a butter sculpture of the Cleveland Indians be next on the to-do list? Well, one stick of butter at a time I suppose would be wise.
