So I got a chance to check out the Magic on the road recently. A nice showing of blue in the building for sure -- especially against a division rival. But otherwise, I was underwhelmed by how many total people were at the stadium.
Orlando is not going to ever travel well. It is not the biggest city. It is not the biggest team. It doesn't have the star power of most other teams.
But with one of the best records in the league entering the game, and the team I was visiting playing so well, I figured it would draw a little better. It was a Saturday night for crying out loud.
The stadium was pretty full. But not to capacity. I expected a little more people to show up for one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, that is for sure.
No complaints. Respect from the ticket-buying public has to be earned. And Orlando is not quite there yet.
They will be soon.
