THE “F5” (FASCINATING FACTOID FOR FANATICAL FLORIDIANS) –
As the NBA regular season kicks off in a few days let us pause for a moment to remember that of the 4,296 entries submitted to the Orlando Sentinel in 1986, only 11 suggested “Magic” should be the name of Orlando’s first-ever major-league professional sports franchise. Leading entries included “Heat” (side note: Miami was awarded its franchise at the same time as Orlando as well as those in Charlotte and Minnesota), “Tropics”, and “Juice.”
Be honest…you wish “Juice” had won, don’t you?
“Magic” was selected when Pat Williams, head of the investment group for the franchise, brought his seven-year-old daughter to visit the city. Orlando businessman Jim Hewitt, a prominent investor in the franchise, also was a fan of the name, saying "You look at all the aspects of Central Florida, and you find it really is an exciting place, a magical place."
In the 1989-1990 season, the Magic’s first, the team finished an impressive 18-64. While the Magic have enjoyed many winning seasons since, including two trips to the NBA Finals, a first championship remains elusive.
