I managed to buy some “brokered” tickets a week or so before Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals, a semi-final if you don’t understand the way this works.
Orlando Magic vs Cleveland Cavaliers – with Magic leading the series 3-2 (best out of 7 wins the series and goes to the final).
I’ve been to a couple of games before, but this was a real spectacle with the festivities starting in the streets way before the game got underway.
The Amway Arena is one of the smallest I believe, with around 17,000 seats but the vibe was amazing with at least 95% being Magic supporters (who would travel from Cleveland anyway).
The game itself was pretty exciting, but the Cavs seemed to give up early with even LeBron James looking tired – he has carried the team through the whole series up to now.
Short and sweet, look at the pics.
