Orlando’s local basketball team is Orlando Magic. Going to watch a basketball game is a thoroughly entertaining way to spend your evening, especially if basketball isn’t normally part of your home culture.

It’s so much more than a basketball game, as the stadium goes wild for the team and the entertainment provided during the quarter and half-time breaks.
