The Story

The Orlando Solar Bears were a minor league hockey team that operated for six seasons at the Orlando Arena/TD Waterhouse Centre from 1995 to 2001.  The Solar Bears were a terrific team on the ice, but the team’s novelty factor in the Orlando community wore off quickly.  Attendance dropped from an announced average of 10,460 in the Solar Bears’ debut season of 1995-96 to only 5,156 during the club’s final winter in 2000-01, when the Solar Bears won the final IHL Turner Cup championship.

The Story

The Orlando Rollergators joined Roller Hockey International (RHI) as a hastily organized expansion franchise in April 1995 just two months before the start of the league’s third season. Primary owner Dr. Richard Commentucci was the team orthopedist for the NHL’s New Jersey Devils and partner Slava Fetisov was one of the Devil’s top stars. Both men were consumed with the 1995 NHL playoffs while the Rollergators scrambled to get organized 1,000 miles away. 

In ten home games in 1995, the Rollergators never cracked 2,000 fans in the 13,000-seat building.  The ‘Gators averaged 1,355 fans per game and finished last place in their division at 7-16.

1996 brought a new owner to the club (a real-estate mogul who also owned 25% of RHI) named Norton Herrick. Herrick re-branded the Rollergators as the Orlando Jackals in March 1996 and the Rollergators were no more.

The Story

The Orlando Jackals played at Orlando Arena from 1996 to 1997 before eventually folding in 1997. Even though the Orlando Jackals were a strong team in the 1997 season, it wasn't enough to keep the Black and Purple in Orlando. With players like Sylvain Beauchamp & Rick Bennett donning the Black and Purple in Orlando, the Orlando Jackals should have been able to fill seats. The reality however was much different and with low attendance, the Orlando Jackals soon folded and became no more.
