Re(1): What will Magic City jai-alai be called when they move to Miami Casino? Posted on September 23, 2025 at 02:30:32 AM by jvhili
What is wrong with keeping the name Magic City Jai-Alai? Here's a little history:
By Paul S. George, Ph.D. – Miami History Museum
The early months and years following the city of Miami’s incorporation in 1896 were filled with promise and growth. By summer’s end, 1896, the new city already had a moniker: the “Magic City,” a name given it by Ethan V. Blackman, a publicist, ordained minister and writer who had never visited Miami, but who was swayed by the enthusiasm of Henry M. Flagler, who extolled the nascent community’s virtues and promise to him in a highly descriptive letter.
