<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Orlando Business Journal - The Orlando Magic are talking about the development of a new arena on a mostly undeveloped, 1,800-acre parcel of land adjacent to the Orange County Convention Center and near the area's bustling theme parks. Joel Glass, a spokesman for the National Basketball Association franchise, has confirmed to Orlando Business Journal that Atlanta developer Stan Thomas has met with the team's management about building "a world-class sports and entertainment center," as well as building financial ties with the team as a limited partner.</div> http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives...ad_of_downtown/ If these talks get serious it will show that this team is going to stay in Orlando for good and that we're not moving anytime soon.
Please get serious and stay in Orlando. We are a horrible fan base(attendance wise), but with Darko/Dwight/Jameer/Arroyo future it is looking great and I definetely don't want to see them somewhere other than Orlando.
If they put an arena out there it would do very good. There is so much land out there and the idea of having convention business would drive up attendence. Im getting my masters in hospitality management and our campus is across the street from planned arena. There are 3 huge resorts going up in that area. It would be good to see it there.
