Health & Safety: Terrorism & Related Concerns
Recent incidents of terrorist activity around the world have created the need for increased levels of vigilance when traveling abroad.
The decision to study abroad in a particular country is a personal one, which is made by each student and his or her family. It is regrettable that we must live with the fact that nowhere in the world, including the U.S., can one expect a totally safe environment. Neither can we predict future events or give guarantees about the course of events in the world. As a result of these concerns and our experiences in dealing with these kinds of issues, the International Academic Programs Office has made it a practice to explain our policy regarding safety and international study.
The International Academic Programs Office consults regularly with colleagues around the country who are involved in the administration of study abroad programs, with program directors, with responsible officials of host universities, and with contacts in the U.S. State Department and other government agencies. In addition, we consult with other experts, including our own faculty, who keep well informed on issues and events in the locations of our approved programs. Our ability to communicate almost instantaneously worldwide via electronic mail and fax machines enables us to obtain and share information quickly and efficiently with colleagues in the event of an emergency at an international study site that may have repercussions for international academic programs. In short, we use an effective system of consultation and consensus of informed opinion in making decisions concerning the safety of our students abroad.
We recommend that parents be in touch with Haverford's International Academic Programs Office, the program and resident directors, and the State Department. We strongly recommend reading the Safety Abroad Handbook, which provides resources and preparation tips for students and their parents. Another good source is Students Abroad: Advice for Parents. For travel advisories, check with the U.S. Department of State or the State Department's International Travel Information. Also try calling the Department of State's Office of Overseas Citizens Services Emergency Center in Washington, D.C. at (202) 647-5225. Incidents concerning an American citizen abroad can be reported to this number. American Citizen services can also be contacted the from the U.S. and Canada at (888) 407-4747 or from outside of the U.S and Canada at (202) 501-4444. Students who are involved in an incident or are in the region of an emergency situation should contact the nearest embassy or consulate to report their status (see the list of State Department safety guidelines below). The embassy will then pass the information to the Office of Overseas Citizens Services Emergency Center. This is a good way for students, family members, and Haverford to communicate in the event of a natural disaster or any other incident. We also suggest that students regularly communicate with parents and Haverford. For information on Consulates and Embassies in the U.S. and U.S. Consulates and Embassies worldwide, contact Embassy.org. Students can now register their trip with the State Department before they leave the country. Students will automatically receive updates and pertinent information about their destination.
Safety Guidelines
We must all live with the fact that terrorism is a 21st century reality and is not likely to diminish or increase significantly. Even without the actual use of violence, terrorists often use threats to control the lives of others; to succumb to these threats by reacting in fear may simply help them to achieve their objectives. Nevertheless, there are certain rather obvious precautions that American students abroad can take. The State Department regularly issues standard safety guidelines for safe travel abroad. Among these are the following:
- Keep a low profile and try not to make yourself conspicuous by dress, speech, or behavior in ways that might identify you as a targeted individual. Do not wear obviously American style clothing, particularly American sweatshirts, T-shirts, jeans, and sneakers.
- Avoid crowds, protest groups, or other potentially volatile situations, as well as restaurants and entertainment places where Americans are known to congregate.
- Be wary of receiving unexpected packages and stay clear of unattended luggage or parcels in airports, train stations, or other areas of uncontrolled public access. Report such items to Security. Never agree to carry letters, packages, etc. for anyone.
- Do not borrow suitcases and make sure no one puts anything in your luggage. Be careful not to leave your luggage and belongings unattended at any time.
- Report to the responsible authority any suspicious persons following you or loitering around your residence or instructional facilities; keep your residence area locked; use your common sense in divulging information to strangers about your study program and your fellow students.
- Register upon arrival at the US. Consulate or embassy having jurisdiction over the location of your study abroad program. In an emergency, contact the U.S. Embassy or Consulate. If you cannot reach the U.S. Embassy, go to the nearest Australian, British or Canadian Embassy or Consulate.
- Make sure the resident director, host family, or foreign university official who is assigned the responsibility for your welfare always knows where you are and how to contact you in an emergency. Please leave a copy of your itinerary with your roommates and/or program director when you travel, even if you are traveling only overnight.
- Have access to sufficient funds if necessary to purchase a return ticket quickly. The best arrangement for this is simply to have a valid credit card with an unexpended credit limit.
Please note that the decision to withdraw from a program or return home early rests with the individual. However, there can be no guarantee of credit for students who withdraw from the program before the completion of classes and examinations. All decisions concerning the cancellation of the approved programs rests with Haverford College in consultation with the responsible authorities abroad. If a program was to be canceled or the individual chose to withdraw, Haverford would adhere to the established reimbursement policy of the program. In most cases, only pro-rated room and board fees would be refunded; airfare is not refunded. It is the responsibility of each student to know the refund policy of his or her program. This information is available from the program catalogs and online..
Road Safety
Road accidents are the single greatest hazard facing U.S. travelers abroad. Remember that in many countries, such as England, Ireland, Scotland, and Australia, you look in the opposite direction as you would in the States. The cross sections often note to "look left" or "look right" for traffic. Countries such as Egypt and Kenya have the worst safety records among the countries for which statistics are available. Korea, Morocco, Mexico, Ghana, Spain, India, Nepal and China also rank high, as do Greece and most non-European countries. In many of these countries, traveling at night is not recommended as the roads are not well lit. The Office of International Academic Programs recommends that students do not drive abroad.
Some Tips:
- Learn the highway hazards in the countries in which you are traveling.
- Be aware of local driver behaviors and road conditions.
- Choose the safest form of transportation in each country.
- Avoid traveling at night.
- Contact ASIRT (Association for Safe International Road Travel) before traveling, for information regarding road safety travel in specific countries. phone: (301) 983-5252, fax: (301) 983-3663.
Health Safety
If students are concerned about medical requirements, conditions, and treatment abroad, ACE Travel Assistance (call 1-800-243-6124 or call collect to 1-202-659-7803 from outside the US or Canada) can provide a list of English-speaking doctors who are practicing in foreign countries. ACE is a comprehensive program providing worldwide 24/7 emergency medical and security assistance to travelers. Haverford provides this benefit at no cost to all students, faculty and staff members traveling abroad. The plan also provides valuable pre-travel information. Travelers should understand that this is not a personal medical insurance or prescription plan, and should be sure that they are covered under the terms of their own medical insurance policy.
Other health resources include: Haverford College Health Services, which can provide a physical exam, necessary vaccinations, and/or HIV or other testing for anyone planning to travel abroad. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 404-639-3311, which maintains lists of medical requirements and recommendations by country, information about food and water precautions and aids, and reports of disease outbreaks in specific geographic locations. The World Health Organization, which has the latest information on worldwide health concerns.

Sabra and Shatila massacre
Sabra and Shatila massacre | |
Part of the Lebanese Civil War | |
Bodies of victims of the massacre in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps[1]
Location | West Beirut, Lebanon |
Date | 16–18 September 1982 |
Target | Sabra and Shatila refugee camps |
Attack type | Massacre |
Deaths | 762 to 3,500[2] (number disputed) |
Perpetrators | Kataeb Party militia under Elie Hobeika |
The Sabra and Shatila massacre was the slaughter of between 762 and 3,500 civilians, mostly Palestinians and Lebanese Shiites, by a Lebanese Christian militia in the Sabra and Shatila Palestinian refugee camps in Beirut, Lebanon from approximately 6:00 pm 16 September to 8:00 am 18 September 1982.[3]
The massacre was presented as retaliation for the assassination of newly elected Lebanese president Bachir Gemayel, the leader of the Lebanese Kataeb Party. It was wrongly assumed that Palestinian militants had carried out the assassination, now known to have been perpetrated by Lebanese militants with ties to Syria.[citation needed] In 1982, Israel invaded Lebanon with the intention of rooting out the PLO. By mid-1982, under the supervision of the Multinational Force the PLO withdrew from Lebanon following weeks of battles in West Beirut and shortly before the massacre took place. Various forces — Israeli, Phalangists and possibly also the South Lebanon Army (SLA) — were in the vicinity of the camps at the time of the slaughter, taking advantage of the fact that the multinational forces had removed barracks and mines that encircled Beirut's Muslim neighborhoods and kept the Israelis at bay.[4] The Israeli advance over West Beirut in the wake of the PLO withdrawal, which enabled the Phalangist raid, was considered a violation of the ceasefire agreement between the various forces.[5] The Israel Defense Forces surrounded the camps and stationed troops at the exits of the camps to prevent camp residents from leaving and at the Phalangists' request,[6] fired illuminating flares at night.[7][8]
The actual killers were the "Young Men", a gang recruited by Elie Hobeika, the Lebanese Forces intelligence chief, from men who had been expelled from the Lebanese Forces for insubordination or criminal activities.[9] The killings are widely believed to have taken place under Hobeika's direct orders. Hobeika's family and fiancée had been murdered by Palestinian militiamen, and their Lebanese allies, at the Damour massacre of 1976,[10][11] itself a response to a previous massacre of Palestinians and Lebanese Muslims at the hands of Christian militants. Hobeika later became a long-serving Member of the Parliament of Lebanon and served in several ministerial roles.[citation needed] In 1983, a UN commission chaired by Sean MacBride concluded that Israel bore responsibility for the violence.[12] In 1983, the Israeli Kahan Commission, appointed to investigate the incident, found that Israeli military personnel, aware that a massacre was in progress, had failed to take serious steps to stop it. Thus Israel was indirectly responsible, while Ariel Sharon, then Defense Minister, bore personal responsibility, forcing him to resign.[13]
From 1975 to 1990, groups in competing alliances with neighboring countries fought against each other in the Lebanese Civil War. Infighting and massacres between these groups claimed several thousand victims. Examples: the Syrian-backed Karantina (January 1976) by the Lebanese Christian militia against Kurds, Syrians and Palestinians in the predominantly Muslim slum district, Damour (January 1976) by the PLO against Christians in Beirut, including the family and fiancée of the Lebanese Forces intelligence chief Elie Hobeika; and Tel al-Zaatar (August 1976) by Phalangists against refugees living in a camp administered by UNRWA. The total death toll in Lebanon for the whole civil war period was around 150,000 victims.[14]
The PLO had been attacking Israel from southern Lebanon and Israel had been bombing PLO positions in southern Lebanon since the early 70s.[15]
On 3 June, 1982 an assassination attempt was made upon Israeli Ambassador to Britain Shlomo Argov. The attempt was the work of Abu Nidal, who headed a group rival to Arafat's PLO. Even though the PLO was not involved in the assault, and condemned it, Israel used it as a justification to break a ceasefire then in force with the group, and as a casus belli for a full-scale invasion of Lebanon.[16]
On 6 June 1982 Israel invaded Lebanon moving northwards to surround the capital, Beirut.[17] Following an extended siege of the city the fighting was brought to an end with a US brokered agreement between the parties on 21 August 1982, which allowed for safe evacuation of the Palestinian fighters from the city under the supervision of Western nations and guaranteed the protection of refugees and the civilian residents of the refugee camps.[17]
On 23 August 1982, Bachir Gemayel, who was very popular among Maronites, was elected President of Lebanon by the National Assembly. Israel had relied on Gemayel and his forces as a counterbalance to the PLO, and as a result, ties between Israel and Maronite groups had grown stronger.[18][19][20]
By 1 September, the PLO fighters had been evacuated from Beirut under the supervision of Multinational Forces (MNF).[21][5] The evacuation was conditional on the continuation of the presence of the MNF to provide security for the community of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon.[5] Two days later the Israeli Premier Menachem Begin met Gemayel in Nahariya and strongly urged him to sign a peace treaty with Israel. According to some sources,[22] Begin also wanted the continuing presence of the SLA in southern Lebanon (Haddad supported peaceful relations with Israel) in order to control attacks and violence, and action from Gemayel to move on the PLO fighters which Israel believed remained a hidden threat in Lebanon. However, the Phalangists, who were previously united as reliable Israeli allies, were now split because of developing alliances with Syria, which remained militarily hostile to Israel. As such, Gemayel rejected signing a peace treaty with Israel and did not authorize operations to root out the remaining PLO militants.[23]
On 11 September 1982, the international forces that were guaranteeing the safety of Palestinian refugees left Beirut. Then on 14 September, Gemayel was assassinated in a massive explosion which demolished his headquarters. Eventually, the culprit, Habib Tanious Shartouni, a Lebanese Christian, confessed to the crime. He turned out to be a member of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party and an agent of Syrian intelligence. Palestinian and Muslim leaders denied any connection to him.[24]
Within hours of the assassination, Israeli Defense Minister Ariel Sharon, supported by Begin, decided to occupy West Beirut, informing only then Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir and not consulting the Israeli cabinet. The same night Sharon began preparations for entering the Sabra-Shatila refugee camps.[25] Thus on 15 September, the Israeli army reoccupied West Beirut. This Israeli action breached its agreement with the United States not to occupy West Beirut.[26]
The attack
Following the assassination of Lebanese Christian President Bachir Gemayel, the Phalangists sought revenge. By noon on 15 September, the Sabra-Shatila camps had been surrounded by the IDF, which set up checkpoints at the exits and entrances, and used a number of multi-story buildings as observation posts. Amongst them was the seven-story Kuwaiti embassy which, according to TIME magazine, had "an unobstructed and panoramic view" of the camps. Hours later, IDF tanks began shelling the camps.[25]
According to Linda Malone of the Jerusalem Fund, Ariel Sharon and Chief of Staff Rafael Eitan[27] met with Phalangist militia units and invited them to enter the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps, claiming that the PLO was responsible for Gemayel's assassination.[28] The meeting concluded at 3:00 pm 16 September.[25]
An hour later, 1,500 militiamen assembled at Beirut International Airport, then occupied by Israel. Under the command of Elie Hobeika, they began moving towards the camps in IDF supplied Jeeps, following Israeli guidance on how to enter the camps. The forces were mostly Phalangist, though there were some men from Saad Haddad's "Free Lebanon forces".[25] According to Ariel Sharon and Elie Hobeika's bodyguard, the Phalangists were given "harsh and clear" warnings about harming civilians.[26][29] However, it was by then known that the Phalangists presented a special security risk for Palestinians. Bamahane, the IDF newspaper, wrote on 1 September, two weeks before the massacre, that, in a conversation with an Israeli official, a Phalangist said: "the question we are putting to ourselves is — how to begin, by raping or killing?"[30]
The first unit of 150 Phalangists entered the camps at 6:00 pm. A battle ensued that at times Palestinians claim involved lining up Palestinians for execution.[25] During the night the Israeli forces fired illuminating flares over the camps. According to a Dutch nurse, the camp was as bright as "a sports stadium during a football game".[31]
At 11:00 pm a report was sent to the IDF headquarters in East Beirut, reporting the killings of 300 people, including civilians. The report was forwarded to headquarters in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, where it was seen by more than 20 senior Israeli officers.[25]
At one point, a militiaman's radioed question to his commander Hobeika about what to do with the women and children in the refugee camp was overheard by an Israeli officer, who heard Hobeika's reply: "This is the last time you're going to ask me a question like that; you know exactly what to do." Phalangist troops could be heard laughing in the background.[26]
Later in the afternoon, a meeting was held between the Israeli Chief of Staff and the Phalangist staff. On Friday morning, the Israelis surrounding the camps ordered the Phalange to halt their operation, concerned about reports of a massacre.[26]
On 17 September, while the camps still were sealed off, a few independent observers managed to enter. Among them were a Norwegian journalist and diplomat Gunnar Flakstad, who observed Phalangists during their cleanup operations, removing dead bodies from destroyed houses in the Shatila camp.[32]
Many of the bodies found had been severely mutilated. Many boys had been castrated, some were scalped, and some had the Christian cross carved into their bodies.[33]
Janet Lee Stevens, an American journalist, later wrote to her husband, Dr. Franklin Lamb, "I saw dead women in their houses with their skirts up to their waists and their legs spread apart; dozens of young men shot after being lined up against an alley wall; children with their throats slit, a pregnant woman with her stomach chopped open, her eyes still wide open, her blackened face silently screaming in horror; countless babies and toddlers who had been stabbed or ripped apart and who had been thrown into garbage piles."[34]
Before the massacre, it was reported that the leader of the PLO, Yasir Arafat, had requested the return of international forces, from Italy, France and the United States, to Beirut to protect civilians. Those forces had just supervised the departure of Arafat and his PLO fighters from Beirut. Italy expressed 'deep concerns' about 'the new Israeli advance', but no action was taken to return the forces to Beirut.[35] Henry Kamm, Special to The New York Times, in a report dated 16 September 1982, from Rome:
Yasir Arafat, leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization, demanded today that the United States, France and Italy send their troops back to Beirut to protect its inhabitants against Israel...The dignity of three armies and the honor of their countries is involved, Mr. Arafat said at his news conference. I ask Italy, France and the United States: What of your promise to protect the inhabitants of Beirut?
Number of victims
- According to the BBC, "at least 800" Palestinians died.[36]
- Bayan Nuwayhed al-Hout in her Sabra and Shatila: September 1982[37] gives a minimum consisting of 1,300 named victims based on detailed comparison of 17 victim lists and other supporting evidence, and estimates an even higher total.
- Robert Fisk, one of the first journalists to visit the scene, quotes (without endorsing) unnamed Phalangist officers as saying "that 2,000 Palestinians – women as well as men – had been killed in Chatila." In a 2002 article in The Independent, Fisk speaks of "1700 civilians murdered." [38] The Palestinian Red Crescent put the number killed at over 3,000.[39]
- In his book published soon after the massacre,[40] the Israeli journalist Amnon Kapeliouk of Le Monde Diplomatique, arrived at about 2,000 bodies disposed of after the massacre from official and Red Cross sources and "very roughly" estimated 1,000 to 1,500 other victims disposed of by the Phalangists themselves to a total of 3,000–3,500.
U.N. condemnation
On 16 December 1982, the United Nations General Assembly condemned the massacre and declared it to be an act of genocide.[41] The voting record[42][43][44] on section D of Resolution 37/123 was: yes: 123; no: 0; abstentions: 22; non-voting: 12.
The delegate for Canada stated: "The term genocide cannot, in our view, be applied to this particular inhuman act".[44] The delegate of Singapore – voting 'yes' – added: "My delegation regrets the use of the term 'an act of genocide' ... [as] the term 'genocide' is used to mean acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group." Canada and Singapore also questioned whether the General Assembly was competent to determine whether such an event would constitute genocide.[44]
The United States commented that "While the criminality of the massacre was beyond question, it was a serious and reckless misuse of language to label this tragedy genocide as defined in the 1948 Convention ...".[44]
Such comments led William Schabas, director of the Irish Centre for Human Rights at the National University of Ireland,[45] to state: "the term genocide ... had obviously been chosen to embarrass Israel rather than out of any concern with legal precision".[44]
The commission's report, Israel in Lebanon, concluded that the Israeli authorities or forces were directly or indirectly responsible in the massacres and other killings that have been reported to have been carried out by Lebanese militiamen in the refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila in the Beirut area between 16 and 18 September.[12]
British journalist David Hirst accused the Israeli commission of crafting the concept of indirect responsibility so as to protect Israel from assuming full responsibility for the slaughter along with the Phalangists. He further states that the Commission was only able to achieve that verdict by means of errors and omissions in the analysis of the massacre.[46]
Sharon "personal responsibility"
The Kahan commission found that Ariel Sharon "bears personal responsibility",[13]
At first, Sharon refused to resign, and Begin refused to fire him. It was only after the death of Emil Grunzweig after a grenade was tossed into the dispersing crowd of a Peace Now protest march, which also injured ten others, that a compromise was reached: Sharon would resign as Defense Minister, but remain in the Cabinet as a minister without portfolio. Notwithstanding the dissuading conclusions of the Kahan report, Sharon would later become Prime Minister of Israel.[47][48]
Other conclusions
The Kahan commission also recommended the dismissal of Director of Military Intelligence Yehoshua Saguy[49]',[50] and the effective promotion freeze of Division Commander Brig. Gen. Amos Yaron for at least three years.[50]
Role of Hobeika
Robert Maroun Hatem, Elie Hobeika's bodyguard, stated in his book From Israel to Damascus that Hobeika ordered the massacre of civilians in defiance of Israeli instructions to behave like a "dignified" army.[29]
Pierre Rehov,[51] a documentary filmmaker who worked on the case with former Lebanese soldiers, while making his film Holy Land: Christians in Peril, came to the conclusion that Hobeika was definitely responsible for the massacre, despite the orders he had received from Ariel Sharon to behave humanely.
Hobeika was assassinated by a car bomb in Beirut on 24 January 2002. Lebanese and Arab commentators blamed Israel for the murder of Hobeika, with alleged Israeli motive that Hobeika would be 'apparently poised to testify before the Belgian court about Sharon's role in the massacre[52] (see section above). Prior to his assassination, Elie Hobeika had stated "I am very interested that the [Belgian] trial starts because my innocence is a core issue."[10]
Sharon libel suit
Ariel Sharon sued Time magazine for libel in American and Israeli courts in a $50 million libel suit, after Time published a story in its 21 February 1983, issue, implying that Sharon had "reportedly discussed with the Gemayels the need for the Phalangists to take revenge" for Bachir's assassination.[53] The jury found the article false and defamatory, although Time won the suit in the U.S. court because Sharon's defense failed to establish that the magazine's editors and writers had "acted out of malice," as required under the U.S. libel law.[54]
Relatives of victims sue Sharon
After Sharon's 2001 election to the post of Prime Minister of Israel, relatives of the victims of the massacre filed a lawsuit[55] On 24 September 2003, Belgium's Supreme Court dismissed the war crimes case against Ariel Sharon, since none of the plaintiffs had Belgian nationality at the start of the case.[56]
Reprisal operations
According to Robert Fisk, Osama bin Laden cited the Sabra and Shatila massacre as one of the motivations for the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing, in which al-Qaeda attacked an American Air Force housing complex in Saudi Arabia.[57]

The changes in the world trading system amounted to a significant shift in power from the national to the supranational level, with the result that member states are now disposed to exercise their sovereignty collectively in those areas of commercial law that require global coordination.
The author further argues that a significant factor in the institutional reform of the international trading system was the advent of the information economy, and the resulting imperative to protect intellectual property. In this respect the work lays the foundation for an empirical understanding of the WTO constitution as a response to the logic of intellectual property law.
From a social perspective, the book explains how the collective exercise of sovereignty in the new world order reflects the emergence of a new transnational civil society in which corporations, non-governmental organisations and voluntary associations are demanding a voice in global lawmaking. In examining the limits of the emerging trade constitution and the challenges it is likely to face, the analysis concludes that to find true legitimacy, the WTO and its institutions must find ways of conforming to the democratic principles of accountability, transparency and representation.

The Orlando Magic have been playing in the NBA since November of 1989. Their original home was known as the Orlando Arena and was built in 1988 for the new expansion team. I was a charter season ticket holder for the new team, so I was there when they opened up the new arena. The Magic�s first game was also my first NBA game. So when I went to that first game and walked inside, it was awesome. Everything was so big and beautiful. Chairs were new. Toilets were new. Sinks were new. The floor was new. And it was huge. I walked inside and stopped before going to find my seat and just looked around. You could almost hear the angel choir singing in the background, �AAAHH�!
My only basketball experiences up until then were attending high school games. So this place was amazing. It had a giant scoreboard with a video screen hanging over the court. It had the concourse level with all the food stands and beer stands. It had a shop where you could buy Magic gear. It was awesome. So when the Magic built a new arena, I was skeptical. What�s wrong with the one you have? It�s a great place to watch a game. But the new arena? WOW! Little did we know at the time, but a concourse level doesn�t have to be elbow to elbow all the way across. And long lines at the bathrooms are not just something that you have to put up with at a game. Who knew?
The FANFARE scale is our metric device for rating each stadium experience. It covers the following:
Each area is rated from 0 to 5 stars with 5 being the best. The overall composite score is the "FANFARE Score".
Forget about it. Seriously? If you cannot find something to eat in this place, you just are not easy to please. You want Mexican? They have that. You want pizza? Papa John's has their own stand. You want Bar-B-Q? Got it. You want the standard ball park cuisine? They have that too. And this is on the second concourse level where all of us working class people sit. I never made my way downstairs, but then again, there was no need. They have beer stands. They have a bar. They even have an area called the "O Zone" where you can take your drinks and grab a table and sit. If you take a lap around the upper concourse level there must be six or eight concession stands. Prices are your normal arena high prices, but you can get one of those souvenir sodas for about $6.00 and refill it all you want. And the large popcorn, you will not finish.
This is tricky, because if having a gorgeous place to watch a game is why you come to the place, then it is outstanding. It is very upscale, even if you are in the cheap seats. The employees there are among the friendliest stadium workers in the business. They really go out of their way. They have something for everyone, including a play area for the little kids. Even outside the arena, walking in and going up the escalators to your seats is impressive. The streets are clean and the arena is lit up in Magic Blue lights. The lobby looks like something you'd find in an airport. For "WOW" it is hard to beat.
But, part of the atmosphere at a game is the noise level. This place doesn't have it. In the old Orlando Arena, that place was loud every night. Part of that could have been that the team was new and everything about it was new and exciting. Fans may have become jaded after the "Shaq" era and now watching the "Dwight" era unfold in much the same way. But part of it could also be that the new place is so upscale, that the fans sit there politely and watch the game. It's sort of like watching a game in a sports bar as opposed to a fancy restaurant. You are more likely to yell and cheer at the sports bar. So I'll have to deduct points.
The neighborhood cannot be beat. You can walk down to the Church Street Market Place before and after the game and choose from several restaurants and bars. You can sit outside in some of them or you can go inside. Many of them have live music. The one closest to the arena does a live pre-game show on the radio. Many radio stations are there with tents set up outside doing live remote broadcasts. If you don't want to go to the game, it's a place you can go for the party and have a good time anyway.
Like I said, they are pretty quiet. Part of that is probably that the team stinks this year (2012-2013). But they are solidly behind their team. The night I went most recently, they were playing the lowly Charlotte Bobcats, yet there was still a large crowd. Charlotte led most of the way so the crowd didn't have too many reasons to get loud. But at least they weren't booing which I can imagine fans would do at most arenas if their team was losing to Charlotte. Magic fans are among the best in sports. They have supported this team from day one. For their trouble they have been treated like garbage from their heroes like O'Neal and Howard. But they still show up. Maybe that's stupid, or maybe that's just loyalty. But Magic fans appreciate players who hustle and give it their all, even if they don't always produce results. I think the fans are enjoying this season more than the last few with Howard, even though there will be no playoffs. I would just like to see them get a little bit louder.
It would be impossible for easier access. If you are just truly opposed to walking to the game from your car, for $20.00 you can park at the Geico Garage, which has its own exit off of I-4, park the car, and walk through an indoor walkway, straight into the arena. If it's raining, you won't get wet. If it's cold outside, you will not notice.
If you want to save $10 you can drive to the next exit at Anderson Street and make your first left right into a $10 parking garage. From there you walk about two blocks to Church Street. That parking garage has spaces right in front of the elevators. When you leave, there is an exit to get back onto I-4 right from the third level. You don't even have to go all the way back down to where you came in.
These horrid economic times we live in and the fact that the team is not good does have its advantages. One of these is cheap tickets to Magic games. Right now, as of this writing (2013), there are several ticket buying sites with tickets to upcoming games as low as $3.00. The night before the Charlotte game, I bought two tickets and even after paying the service charges these sites hit you with, I paid $26.00 for the pair. How can you beat that? Even with parking, gas and food, I was able to take my son to the game for probably about $75. If you take your wife out to dinner and a movie you spend more than that.
The night I went they had t-shirts on every seat for the fans. They have a sketch artist where you can get a caricature drawn of your kid for free. The playground for the kids is free and they can stay in all night if they want to. They have escalators to take you up to the upper levels so you don't have to climb stairs if you choose not to. The bathrooms are very large and also clean. Also they have HD TVs all over the concourse level so you can go get food or go to the restroom at any time during the game and still not miss anything. I don't know what else they can do other than pay you to go to the game.

Sounds like they did everything right with the new venue. When I went to the old Amway Arena last season, I was really impressed with the food selection and how into the game the crowd was. Sound slike thi splace is really state of the art, and in a much better location. I look forward to visiting!

A nice, well written review
Jim - I've been to two NBA games and two NBDL games in my life. That's the extent of my basketball arena visits. Based on your review, I WANT to go to this one.
I liked the 'parking tip'.

RE: A nice, well written review
Thanks, megminard! I've never been a basketball fan in the least, yet for whatever reason, this venue is just so intoxicating, I just need to go back for more. Who knows? This building may make me understand the game yet! Thanks for reading.

RE: Sounds like they did everything right with the new venue. When I went to the old Amway Arena las
It very much is, Paul. My friends who came along with me said at the Amway Arena, the entire crowd would get a "Ref, You SUCK!" chant going if they were not thrilled. Thankfully (or sadly, depending on how you look at it), there was no need for that chant that night. But yes, the crowd was super-intense...and I loved it! You should enjoy your next trip to Orlando then. Thanks for reading.
by StPeteRays | Jan 19, 2011 03:02 AM
Glad you enjoyed!
Jim, so glad you enjoyed your visit to Orlando. As someone who has lived in Orlando all my life and a diehard Magic fan, we truly are a basketball fanbase that is extremely unique. We're VERY supportive of our hometown Magic, which is magnified x10 when playoffs roll around. If you thought the atmosphere was great at this game, make sure you go to a playoff game. The old Amway Arena was known for it's raucous playoff crowds, something that should be even louder in this new building due to the fact that they put curved acoustic panels across the ceiling (you may have noticed) that reflects all noise down onto the court.
Glad you enjoyed!

I looked at the photo of the seating bowl and it looks like about any other NBA/NHL arena built in the last 15 years. The only differences are the small amenities like th food offerings. I am pretty disappointed by the NBA/NHL arenas I have been to.

You must be a Stadium Journey member to post a comment.
Orlando's official motto is "The City Beautiful," so with that type of billing emblazoned on City Hall, there's a certain expectation level that you would assume needs to be achieved. From the meticulously maintained Walt Disney World complex, which is actually in nearby Lake Buena Vista, to International Drive, almost everything seems to fit that billing, no matter how artificial. It's as though nothing less than perfection is allowed within metro Orlando, and for a city trying to bill itself as the family-friendly version of Las Vegas, I wouldn't expect any less.
Located about 8 blocks north of the new home, the old Amway Arena was the home of the Orlando Magic for the first 20 years of the franchise's existence and saw the near-coronation of the expansion team twice: 1995 and 2009, both years having made the NBA Finals. Great players have made their way through those doors - Shaq, Dwight Howard, Vince Carter, and Patrick Ewing, amongst numerous others - so, the closing of the Amway Arena was bittersweet for Magic fans. Does the successor building, having just opened on October 1, 2010, with all its flash and glamour, live up to being the worthy successor to "The O-Rena"?

Linus Unleashes Linux Kernel 2.6.39
Faced with the decision to publish kernel 2.6.39 now or wait until after the upcoming LinuxCon, Linus Torvalds announces the immediate release of the new Linux kernel.
"So it's delayed a few days, and I really was struggling with the decision of whether I wanted to cut a final release at all: it could easily have made more sense to just do an -rc8," Torvalds writes in a Linux Kernel Mailing List post. "However, since I'm going to be at LinuxCon Japan in two weeks, the choice for me ended up whether I should just release, or drag it out *three* more weeks, or have some really messy merge window with a break in between."
Torvalds describes the current release window as "easy," and writes, "-rc2 was calm, -rc3 was _really_ calm, and -rc7 was tiny. And while this has more commits than -rc7 had, I didn't feel like that changed the overall picture much: we really did have much less churn after the merge window closed than we usually do. Which actually makes me pretty happy about the state of 2.6.39."

I spent my weekend with my monkeys!! Yes, I have monkeys! I love them! They are fun, easy to talk to, understanding, and loving. They lift me up and encourage me when times are tough. In the good, they rejoice with me. No one can make me laugh like my monkeys! Might I add that they are beautiful?!?!
So before you think I have officially gone off the deep end, let me explain.
I had the privilege to spend the weekend at The Women Of Faith Conference downtown. It was nothing less than amazing!!! I was blessed by hearing speakers tell about how they took their pain and made beauty out of their ashes. It was awesome!
On Friday, we listened to Henry Cloud, the author of the book that we highly recommend, "Boundaries". He was fabulous, funny, and informative. He spoke about what factors into us obtaining what we "Imagine". What helps us get there? One factor he focused on was being connected to others.
Without going into too much detail, he talked about a study done with monkeys. They were given various stressful situations. The monkeys that were with other monkeys released 1/2 the amount of stress hormones into their body! That proves that they handle stress better when they are not alone! This goes for us, too. Those suffering with depression, anxiety, stress, or major challenges will handle it better if they are not alone.
I completely agree with this and see it played out in my own life and in the lives of my clients. We all need that one person or a group of people who cheer us on and are on our side. They love us no matter how ugly we get or how funny we are.
I am so grateful for my monkeys! I hope you have monkeys, too. If you don't, go get you some! And if you have one, thank your monkey today!!
Have a great week! Thanks for reading.
