The Harlem Globetrotters show no signs of slowing down! They provide a wonderful form of family entertainment that is clean, fun and energetic for all ages. The children in particular will enjoy their crazy antics and amazing basketball skills! Check out the Harlem Globetrotter 2013 schedule and tickets and take this opportunity to see the legendary Harlem Globetrotters of the modern era.
The Harlem Globetrotters have been known for their big-named basketball talent, such as Meadowlark Lemon, Wilt Chamberlain, and “Magic” Johnson just to name a few. They have been featured on ABC’s Wide World of Sports and on ESPN on several occasions. In 1974, President Gerald Ford named the Harlem Globetrotters “America’s Ambassadors of Good Will,” a title that they carry with them even today! They have performed for such famous people as Bob Hope, Colin Powell, and Nelson Mandella!
Today’s lineup includes such talented players as “Special K”, “Big Easy”, and “Dizzy.” Each player has their own special talent to amaze fans who attend Globetrotter games. I am sure you will not be disappointed! My family and I will be attending the Winston-Salem, NC performance on March 24th. We cannot wait! As a child I loved the Globetrotters and even had a chance to work with the legendary Meadowlark Lemon at a couple of shows! These performances I still remember vividly today, some thirty years later!
I believe that your family will enjoy this amazing group of basketball talent, so take the opportunity to catch the Harlem Globetrotters in action at an arena near you! Be sure to let us know if you decide to catch a show and how much you and your family enjoyed it!

I also remember this from my childhood. I can't wait for my boys to be able to sit and watch too! Thanks for the post.
Oh that is so cool! Special K and Big Easy were my favorites on the Amazing Race, I'd love to see them doing their thing!
Love the Globetrotters! We saw them last year and it was such family fun :)
I'm not really into basketball, but this sounds like something any fan would love to see!
I just went and looked at their schedule and they are coming to a venue in Illinois that is 2 hours away so we cant go :( My son wants to see them SO SO BAD!!! (and so do I) Looks fun!
Two hours away wouldn't stop me, well....if it was on a weekend. On a week night it probably would, lol.

I remember taking my kids to see them play when they were young. We had a great time. You don't have to like basketball to enjoy this.
