The Harlem Globetrotters Are Back!

I’m so excited that the Harlem Globetrotters are coming back to PNC Arena in Raleigh, NC next weekend on Sunday – March 1, 2015 at 3:00 p.m. My entire family loves this show and it keeps us very much entertained. I’m usually at the edge of my seat watching the different challenges and keeping score of the game. The Harlem Globetrotters will be competing against the Washington Generals. Fun Fact: The Generals, the last team to beat the Globetrotters, are now coached by a former member of that 1971 team. I’m sure this will be a great game to watch as the Washington Generals aim to win by any means necessary. I love a competitive FUN basketball game. I love the team and fan interaction along with the gut wrenching comedy the entire show. The Harlem Globetrotters show is sure to create a lasting memory for you and your loved ones. This will be the fifth year that my family and I are enjoying the Harlem Globetrotters and we love it every time!
