Today was the day! This afternoon we spent in Kansas City enjoying some fun family time at the Harlem Globetrotters game. The kids were very excited!!
We got there a little early so we were able to enjoy the pregame entertainment brought to us by none other than Globie! Globie is the Harlem Globetrotters mascot and he is pretty amazing. He has some awesome dance moves and is so funny.
The kids were really entertained by Globie as well.
After a while it was finally time for the game to begin. This year the Harlem Globetrotters tour is called “You write the rules.” This means that through online voting, the fans got to decide difference rules for each quarter of the game! These rules added an extra element of fun and 
silliness to the game. Our rules for our game were: during the first quarter there was a 4 point spot. It was 35 feet from the basket and super impressive when people made the shot. Firefly seemed to be the best at making that 4 point shot.
Check out this sweet picture I captured at the ball was swishing through the basket:
The rule for the second quarter was double points. This made the points of our game get high pretty fast! The third quart rule was to have 2 balls in play. They used 2 pink balls for breast cancer awareness. The fourth quarter rules were unknown to us because we stepped out to get ice cream! 🙂
Another Globetotter friend named Big G was also SO funny and a good dance. Apparently he is an internet star so I would definitely search him on youtube! He was pretty amazing!
All in all it was a great time to be had by all! The game was fun and fast paced so it did a good job of holding the kids attention. The players were all very funny. The tricks were impressive. We LOVED our fun afternoon with the Globetrotters!
