SPEAKER_4 (1:35)

I don't know anybody who's a diehard Magic fan.

SPEAKER_1 (1:37)

I was just thinking that. Are they still?

SPEAKER_4 (1:39)

You ever met a diehard Magic fan?

SPEAKER_1 (1:41)

The stool needs to hire a Magic guy.

Well, the Magic came in and they gave us jumpsuits and he's worn.

SPEAKER_4 (1:51)

Oh, the Wagner's came in. I remember that.

SPEAKER_3 (1:53)

Yeah, and he's worn one of the sweatshirts a couple times.

SPEAKER_1 (1:55)

Yeah.

SPEAKER_3 (1:56)

So he's as diehard as it gets.

SPEAKER_4 (1:57)

They brought some good clothes.

SPEAKER_1 (1:58)

He might be their biggest fan.

SPEAKER_6 (1:59)

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_7 (2:00)

When you say Magic fan, you first think of like Magician or Magic Johnson.

SPEAKER_1 (2:04)

Or Magic the Gathering.

SPEAKER_4 (2:05)

I think I immediately think the Orlando Magic is so good on their branding.

SPEAKER_1 (2:08)

Wait, really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_4 (2:09)

When you said it, I was like, yeah, no magic.

SPEAKER_1 (2:11)

I guess.

SPEAKER_3 (2:12)

Well, it's also because he's from Florida. I was like, oh, he's in Magic.

SPEAKER_4 (2:14)

Shack and Penny? Is that what you like?

SPEAKER_5 (2:16)

You guys are sports nuts, though.

SPEAKER_4 (2:17)

That's true. We are nuts about sports.

SPEAKER_3 (2:20)

We're fucking nutty, dude.

SPEAKER_4 (2:22)

We're nuts about fucking sports.

SPEAKER_1 (2:23)

I think it depends on how you dress, and it's like, I love magic.

SPEAKER_7 (2:27)

I think you were talking about magician, you say fan of magic.

SPEAKER_4 (2:29)

No, but if you say, I'm a magic fan, that brings Orlando magic. If you said, I'm a fan of magic, that's obviously magic.

SPEAKER_3 (2:35)

That's Magic Johnson. If you said, I'm a fan of magic, that's Magic Johnson.

SPEAKER_6 (2:39)

Magic hasn't played basketball in 30 years, though.

SPEAKER_3 (2:41)

Yeah, but you could still be a fan of all the-

SPEAKER_1 (2:42)

Are you a fan of magic?

SPEAKER_4 (2:44)

I was a fan of magic. Well, actually, I hated him in the 80s, but then I started to appreciate him because he plays basketball the way I want people to play.

SPEAKER_3 (2:49)

You waited till he got AIDS and almost died before you're like, hey, he's not so bad.

SPEAKER_1 (2:53)

You're like when a rapper dies, then you follow him on it.

SPEAKER_4 (2:56)

It was a little before the AIDS that I turned.

SPEAKER_3 (2:58)

I hate this guy. He's going to die?

SPEAKER_4 (3:01)

I got to like 10 years old and I was like, oh, wow, I enjoy these passes. Became a big passing guy.

SPEAKER_3 (3:09)

Yeah, that's my favorite skill. Actually, I will say that I think everyone like, the maturity of like a boy to a man is when you can really like enjoy it.
