Any kid my age immediately thinks of the Harlem Globetrotters wen they hear “Sweet Georgia Brown”. That whistling tune always told me that the Harlem Globetrotters were coming to my area. While I have never gotten to see them before it is something that I’ve really wanted to do. My only real experience with them is seeing them on Scooby Doo cartoons and Gilligan’s Island. I’d love to go see them sometime. I was offered a pack of passes for the family for one of the upcoming shows happening in February and March but we’ve already committed to a couple of events those dates. So we’ll miss out. However, you do not have to miss out on seeing them when they come to New England in February and March. I have all the details on the shows below.

As part of the tour, the Globetrotters will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the four-point shot, a shot 30-feet from the basket which they introduced to the sport in 2010. The team will also bring back its popular “Magic Pass” pre-game event, which enables fans to come onto the court, meet their favorite Globetrotters for pictures and autographs, and even learn how to spin a ball on their finger just like the stars.
