Isn't the orange bowl out in the middle of nowhere ?

Not really. There is nothing around it, but it is about 3 miles west of interstate 95. 1 mile to the east of 95 from the Orange Bowl is Aventura, Sunny Isles, and Hollywood. All great areas with great beaches and a lot of $10-$50 million dollar homes in Golden Beach. Also, Gulfstream casino is 8 miles away, the Seminole hardrock is 6 miles away. Both are MASSIVE entertainment and shopping venues with about 150 dining places, shops, bars, clubs and casinos between them. Seminole Hardrock happens to be the single most profitable casino in the world with a few thousand people there every weekend.

Then 15 miles north is Fort Lauderdale and 15 miles south is South Beach, Miami, etc.

If you are talking destinations, I put the Orange Bowl #1 and Rose Bowl #2 and everything else quite a bit below. At either of those locations, you could spend a month and still not even see or do a fraction of stuff to do for tourists or residents in those areas.
