One of my FAVORITE childhood memories was my father taking me and my sister to see the Harlem Globetrotters. At the risk of showing my true age, that was when Curly and Meadowlark Lemon were wowing crowds everywhere. OK, fess up, I know I’m not the only one who remembers when the Globetrotters joined the Scooby-doo cartoon. My son loves it. Ahem.
Well, they’re still at it with a whole new crop of superstars. Known as the magicians of basketball, the Harlem Globetrotters are now celebrating their 85th year of an incredibly entertaining brand of basketball. They’ve played more than 25,000 games, entertaining everyone from Presidents to Popes.
As soon as Miles saw the commercial that they were coming to town he started bargaining for tickets. Yup, I’m getting a clean room out of the deal. Not only is my family going but I’ve got four tickets to give to one of you so your family can enjoy the fun, too.
Want to go? They’ll take the court at Philips Arena in Atlanta on March 12, 2011 at 1pm. As always I’m easy, here’s how to win:
Subscribe/Follow my blog; and/or Like my Run Wifey Run Facebook page. You need to do at least one and leave me a comment letting me know so I can count you in. If you do both you’ve got two entries.
Want another shot? Like the Harlem Globetrotters on Facebook and tell me in a comment.
More?
If you tweet, Facebook or blog about it and let me know in the comments they’ll each earn you one more entry.
Easy, right? The contest starts now and will end next Monday, February 28, 2011, at 11:59 p.m. EST. US residents only, please. The winner will be chosen via Random.org.
Good luck! I’m off to practice some of my own tricks …
