Anytime you put "world-famous" in front of something, you know there's a history behind the product or brand. And that's exactly the case when it comes to the Harlem Globetrotters! They've been entertaining crowds for decades! As a kid I remember they had their own Saturday morning cartoon, and then I would about lose it when the cartoon characters would show up on episodes of Scooby-Doo.....it didn't get any cooler than that. I remember going to see the Globetrotters when I was young and being mesmerized by their skills. And I'm pretty sure we even had an assembly at school one time where they showed up to perform.

The roster has obviously evolved over the years - but they're still touring and bringing smiles to faces with their Globetrotters brand of basketball and fun. All you have to do is turn on "Sweet Georgia Brown" and as soon as the first whistle hits, people recognize it as "the Globetrotters song."

The Harlem Globetrotters are bringing their Spread Game Tour to Missoula and they'll play a game bring their basketball experience to the Adams Center on September 12. It's sure to be fun for all!

From the Griz Tix website, here's some highlights for the night of entertainment:
"Ankle breaking moves, jaw dropping swag, deeper than the three ball. We're talking about 4 point shots. Plus, rim-rattling dunks. These ballers are putting on a show. And...new to the Harlem Globetrotter's family are some on-court characters guaranteed to energize the action and entertainment of every game. We're talking about laugh out loud funny. Get ready for world class basketball showmanship and full-court fun. Don't miss seeing the team the whole family will cheer for. Spread Game."

Sure, the big entertainment is when the Globetrotters are playing basketball on the court - but how about some pre-game fun? A Magic Pass will get you entry to an on-court experience with the team before the game where you can learn ball tricks, get pictures and autographs, and shoot around on the court.
