The Magic City (General)

Last night I attended the Orlando Magic basketball game and it was great! The Magic blew out the Chicago Bulls and it was never really close…just the way I like it. The real Dr. Laura. (my wife) was supporting the charity fundraising efforts of the Honors Institiute at Seminole Community College by selling tickets to the game. So we bought tickets and joined a whole bunch of SCC fans to cheer on the Magic while raising money for two charities. The Seminole County Meals on Wheels program which delivers meals to the elderly, and the Free the Slaves organization, which works for prevention of modern day slavery. As I got home, it once again occurred to me, what a cool place Orlando is…so here is my top 10 from last night…… 1) I had a great time for less than $20 bucks! 2) We raised money for two great charity organizations 3) I had a great time with the folks I was sitting around 4) the older Magic players are still around and still seem to be such nice guys…Nick Anderson and Bo Outlaw judged the half-time slam dunk contest. 5) The players seemed to have such fun playing together.. Dwight, Hedo, Rashard, JJ, and Courtney, and Rafer, were all cheering each other on…even the bench players 6) the fans were all having such a great time too…it was contagious 7) Stuff and the “mini stuffs” caused me to laugh out loud several times 8) in the parking lot, people actually allowed other cars into the exit line to get out 9) We got home before 10pm, which is when I have actually been known to fall asleep in mid-sentence 10) SCC students were participating in the community, helping others and having a great time… it just doesn’t get any better than that! We’re number 1! We're number 1! We're number 1! sorry... just got a little carried away with the cheering thing.....
