I did both on a vacation about 8-10 years ago. Great trip. I stayed just outside of Cleveland. Canton is only about a 45 minute drive from Cleveland. The house from A Christmas Story is also in Cleveland. Did a tour of that as well. It was my second time going to the Pro Football HOF. I'd been as a teenager. It's so much bigger and better than it was then. I also went to some really cool restaurants in Cleveland. The Melt, Happy Dog, and Great Lakes Brewing are musts if you're in that area.
