Ribbon cutting opens the Magic's arena

The arena officially opened on January 29, 1989, with a ribbon cutting and a public open house that featured the Orlando Magic Dancers and Curly Neal. Ground had been broken in January 1987, before the NBA awarded Orlando a franchise. The Magic played there through 2010.
