According to Joe Newman, ABA CEO, "The Newport Beachside has been the Official Hotel of the Florida Pit Bulls and every team that has visited has raved about the location, the unmatched resort amenities and activities amid South Florida's natural splendor. The hotel recently served as the Official Hotel of the Orange Bowl. We know that the ABA team owners, management and All Star teams will have a fabulous time there and we recommend anyone planning to attend ALL STAR 2006 to consider staying there."
Demetrius Ford, co-owner of the Florida Pit Bulls, and host for the ALL STAR 2006 weekend added, "And we'll have quite a few free tickets to our activities at the hotel available for guests, an added incentive for staying at one of our great sponsors.
