The scene Saturday night in downtown Orlando is one of jubilation as cars honk and Magic fans high-five each other to celebrate the victory of their hometown team. Hundreds of people packing Wall Street Plaza raised their arms, pumped their fists and cheered wildly at the moment the Magic clinched the win. In unison, they sang "We Are The Champions" by Queen.
"We're going to whoop the Lakers," said Porschia Powell, 22, as she danced in victory, wearing a cropped No. 15 Magic shirt. The number belongs to forward Hedo Turkoglu. "If we can take on LeBron [James] and we can beat the Celtics, Kobe [Bryant] is nothing."
The crowd ran back and forth across Orange Avenue yelling and grinning for television cameras and shaking hands with strangers in cars that were stuck in the gridlock surrounding the merriment.
"I'm ecstatic," said Christine Brown, 32, of Orlando. "I'm so proud of the team." Thomas Noland, 22, held a Magic banner, waving it at passing cars and shouting, "Beat L.A.!"
"We're all one. One city. One team. One goal. This is our year," he said.
