Orlando Magic Cruel April Fool's Day Joke

jesus, this is pretty fucking cruel to do to somebody who actually PAID to go to an NBA basketball game. give him a pair of season's tickets, not as if the Magic sell out.

here's their version of an April Fool's Day promotion:


In an April Fool's joke that left everyone but the contestant laughing, the Magic made a fan think he was shooting a half-court shot for $100,000 at halftime. The fan was blindfolded, and the crowd was told beforehand to cheer as if he made the shot. The young contestant, named Dan, missed badly but believed he won and danced around the court in a frenzy. Before being told it was a joke and showed the replay he said, "I just got laid off at work." He was given a 100 Grand Bar of candy instead but was not laughing
