American Airlines Arena No More

     The home of the Miami Heat will no longer be called American Airlines Arena. The arena off Biscayne Boulevard will soon have a new name.
     American Airlines Arena opened up on January 31, 1999 with a performance by Gloria Estefan. The Miami Heat moved into their new home from Miami Arena and had their first game at American Airlines Arena on January 2, 2000 against the Orlando Magic. It was the first game played of the National Basketball Association in the 21st century. The Heat have won three NBA titles in 2006, 2012 and 2013 since they have resided there.
