Miami: Start of Heat-Magic Game Delayed by Power Outage

The Associated Press

MIAMI (AP) - A power outage at AmericanAirlines Arena delayed the start of Sunday's Miami Heat-Orlando Magic game for more than an hour.

The outage, which occurred just after the starting lineups were introduced at 12:40 p.m., affected nearly a thousand customers in the downtown area, a spokesman for Florida Power and Light said.

The problem involved a main feeder line, and the utility was uncertain how quickly the problem would be fixed, the spokesman said.
