Do you believe in MAGIC?

Last night I, along with hubby and co-workers, went to an Orlando Magic's game and I came to a conclusion. If you think you don't like a certain sport, watching it LIVE (oh, and maybe court side) will change your mind. I never liked or watched pro basketball...ever. But, last night my hair blew each time the 10 Neanderthals sprinted down the court, literally. We had great seats for both halves of the game. First half we sat a few rows behind the team and second half we sat ON the court, across from the Magic. It was phenomenal. I also came away from the game with a favorite player to follow, Carlos Arroyo. He was easily the shortest guy on the court, but was able to put the ball in the hoop via amazing gymnastic like antics. I realize my excitement parallels that of a tween, no apologies. To make the night even better, the Magic creamed the Bulls.

The game started w/ these "lovely" ladies.
What do you think they're selling?! Ya, not just
hot dogs and beer.

Oh!? A costume change and more money-maker shakin'

Jump!

That tall guy (LOL), in the tan suit is Patrick Ewing.
He was recently inducted into the basketball hall
of fame and is now an assistant coach for The Magic.

Ha, I know no one. But, I very much need a tan, though I've decided to give up tanning and just bought a brand new bottle of 50 SPF that I intend to slather from head-to-toe (sorry for the visual).

What a fun "business trip" :)

I don't watch b-ball on tv but I would totally dig floor seats!

awesome seats, looks like fun (and what kind of "cheerleading" uniform is that)?!!

totally jealous right now!!! Awesome seats, and great pics!!! While I agree with your premise about Carlos being vertically challenged, Dwight Howard is the most amazing athlete on the floor at any game and is a rock solid christian too!!!
Have a great rest of the trip!
