Charlotte honored the 1990s at Time Warner Arena Tuesday, hosting Hornets' Nick Night, an ode to the heyday of Nickelodeon's Saturday night lineup that was all the rage among pre-teens and teenagers back in the day.
They even brought out one of the stars of the network's flagship shows—Kel Mitchell, one half of the coming-of-age buddy comedy "Kenan & Kel", alongside Kenan Thompson. Mitchell, now 37, is still as lively as he was from 1996-2000 when he and his counterpart were to children what Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall had been to adults in the 1980s, if ony for a fraction of the time.
