Grab a plunger AND a handle, Orlando Magic fans. It’s time to test the toilets at the Orlando Magic’s new Amway Center home.
In an event billed as the “Drano Royal Flush”, Orlando Magic president Alex Martins, Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and students from Nap Ford Elementary school will simultaneously flush 443 toilets at the new arena at 10 a.m., Sept. 8. The team says more than 150 people will be involved in this task of tasks.
Bathroom capacity will be of primary concern for Magic fans, particularly those who’ve grown weary of standing in line to use the loo. The old Amway Arena only feature four men’s and women’s restrooms apiece. Lines were long. Bladders were challenged.
No worries. Amway Center will feature 19 women’s restrooms and 18 men’s restrooms … a change we can all believe in.
Happy flushing.
P.S. If you don’t get the “grab a handle” reference, it’s referring to the Magic’s team motto entering the 2009-2010 season. Let’s hope Otis Smith conjures up something better than “grab a plunger” for 2010-2011.
P.P.S. Tidy Bowl Man beware. You’re going down!
