    Ever been to a Harlem GlobeTrotters game?
    Considering taking my old man as he thinks basketball is boring in general and I can't get him to go a regular game. Seeing the Trotters are on tour and I just checked the ticket prices and the floor seats are a good price. Anyone ever been to one of these games and describe me the atmosphere? Is it as entertaining as people make it out to be on tv? Would a 70+ year old guy who knows very little about basketball get a kick out of it?

        I've been to a game, it's good entertainment.

        The Globetrotters ended up winning.

          Yes 2-3 times, years ago when the legends were still on the squad.

          Very entertaining.

            It's very entertaining.

            Real family atmosphere.

              My mom's company had a box at the United Center and used to go see the Globetrotter's anytime they came to town in the late 90's/early 2000's. Always a blast, no idea what its like now but definitely worth it to go once.

                u should be entertained if you're 9 years old or grew up in kenya where the only sport is lion spearing.

                    Krusty's Accountant: Let me get this straight. You took all the money you made franchising your name and bet it *against* the Harlem Globetrotters?

                    Krusty the Clown: [miserable] Oh, I thought the Generals were due!
                    [watches the game on TV]

                    Krusty the Clown: He's spinning the ball on his finger! Just take it! Take it!
                    [the Globetrotters score]

                    Krusty the Clown: That game was fixed! They were using a freakin' ladder, for God's sake!

                            just a circus on a basketball court. using same skits from the 50's. amazed that they can still sell tickets to this foolishness. not funny, not entertaining for anyone over 8.
