I am not really a fan of any sport, however one show I am more than happy to see is the Harlem Globetrotters. They are not just basketball, but a whole spectacular that is enjoyable for the whole family. I've known about the Globetrotters since I was young as my great grandmother loved watching them every time they were on TV, so getting to see them live is extra exciting because it reminds me of her. They are currently on their 2023 tour & recently stopped in Arizona for a few days, we were lucky to catch one of their shows while they were here.
We had a lot of fun the last time we seen them so the kids were excited to see them again this year. There are always fans of all ages from small babies to seniors, and everyone always looks like they are having a fantastic time. Best of all the shows are always different, our experience this time was completely different from the last along with a change up in the roster so we were able to see players we haven't seen yet. The entire event is fast paced & will keep you on your toes waiting to see what happens next. It is crazy how quickly the show goes by, you'll be having so much fun you won't even be watching the time. As I mentioned, they aren't playing just basketball but they are also putting on a show so it breaks up the game a bit, gets the crowed laughing & happy.
I like that they have two different show times during the day, one at 2pm and another at 7pm. This time around we decided to go with the 2pm show. We had a lot of fun at the show, there are so pretty cool tricks to see & they always involve the crowd which adds an intimate setting to it. Looking for ways to save some money while at an event like this with the family? The footprint center where this event was held recently started a program where you can get a free ride on the metro to the event (and back) with your ticket to the event. So if you don't mind a slightly longer commute you can park at a park & ride then ride for free to the event saving $30+ on parking. I would also suggest eating ahead of time as the food/drinks can be a bit pricey at the venue.
After the show the team sticks around to sign shirts, basketballs, etc. so if you are a big fan & want an autograph be sure not to miss it. If you don't have something for them to sign, there is merchandise for sale around the venue. Check out their tour schedule to see if they are headed to a city near you, you won't regret going to one of their shows. I will be sharing some highlights from the show over on my instagram page.

Oh this looks like a fun event. I never been to a basketball game before.
Such a fun event to see and the Harlem Globetrotters put on a great performer!
The Globetrotters are so unbelievably athletic. The things they do amaze me every time I see them.
I remember watching the Harlem Globetrotters on television when I was a child. Would love to see them live! Stephanie
I have seen the Harlem Globetrotters live in the past. It's a lot of fun, especially for kids.
I've always wanted to see the Harlem Globetrotters live! It's been a dream since I was a kid. I hope to go someday.
I’ve never seen these guys in action, but I’ve heard nothing but good things about their shows! I hope to watch for myself someday! Thanks so much for sharing!

I've heard this is such a neat show. I've seen it on tv before, but never seen them live. We had an option to have them as part of a school fundraiser this year but weren't able to get it together for it in time.
Wow...it must be nice to be in an arena like this, when ball is being played. But, how exactly did that man get to stand on the hoop for that long?
Can't say I'm much of a basket ball fan but I know who the Globetrotters are! Thanks to Futurama of course! This must have been an amazing experience!
I am not really a fan of basketball but I enjoy watching them together with my husband, especially when they prepared an amazing halftime show for everyone.
I've always wanted to see the Harlem Globetrotters! It looks like so much fun! Thanks so much for sharing.
This sounds like so much fun! I have never been to the Globetrotters, but have always wanted to see them in person.
I'm the same with sport. But, I think once you go and get caught up in the atmosphere it can be quite fun.
This looks like so much fun. I wish I can attend a basketball match. Never done it before in my life
I wish I was there. I would have enjoyed the game so much. Basketball has always been my favourite sport.
