The mayor had already left the stadium.
That's right, Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer had just been interviewed by a local TV station about Orlando City's, ahem, season-opening loss.
The TV reporter and the mayor both thought it was over.
So did you.
So did I.
So did the 60,000 or so fans who filled the Citrus Bowl.
So did everybody.
Except the Orlando City Lions.
Or should we call them the Orlando Gritty Lions?
Unbelievably, inconceivably, amazingly and hair-raisingly, they tied the game.
And won the day.
