Some like it hot: Clinton watches Heat (Politico)

MIAMI - Former President Bill Clinton did something Sunday that many celebrities do when visiting South Florida.

He watched the Miami Heat.

Clinton arrived shortly before tip-off of the Heat?s game against the Orlando Magic, even getting his hands on a deflected ball late in the first half and smiling as he flipped it back onto the court.

He stayed until the very end, then posed for plenty of postgame photos with fans, as well as one with the officiating crew of Bill Kennedy, Mark Lindsay and Rodney Mott.

?As a crew, it was an honor and a privilege,? Kennedy said after the game.

Clinton told the crew: ?No one in this building, other than me, has been second-guessed more than you guys.?

The former president sat just to the right of Heat managing general partner Micky Arison, the two chatting just about nonstop during play while sitting near midcourt at a table only inches from the sideline. The former president?s visit was not announced beforehand, and when asked about it postgame, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra still apparently wasn?t aware that Clinton was sitting next to one of his bosses.

The Heat won the game 90-78 behind 27 points from Dwyane Wade.
