What a great show! It should be a goal for everyone to see the Harlem Globetrotters at least once. When I was in school the Globetrotters came to our rinky dink school and did a demonstration. I was in awe of them and have wanted to go see their show ever since. Now, here it is just a few years later and I finally got to go see them! Okay, so it's been more than a few years, but you weren't supposed to focus on that part of the story. The fact that two of them (Big Easy and Flight Time) were a team on the TV show The Amazing Race this past season made it even more fun.
Quentin and I met Andrew and Austin at A&W/KFC for lunch before the game. Quentin declared that A&W's Rootbeer is "INSANE"...in a good way, and Austin decided that his new favorite food is KFC Popcorn Chicken. Luckily, Quentin ordered a large and was willing to share. :-) After making fun of the rodeo cowboys for driving away in a minivan we headed to the game.
The show was hilarious and there's tons of crowd participation. Austin danced along with the crowd to YMCA, but Quentin and Andrew decided they would pass. A few kids got to go onto the court and participate in the show and they each received an autographed jersey. It was really cute.
After the game the players signed autographs. We waited in line to get Big Easy's autograph and then we were able to get one of the other players also. I think it was Titan, but I'm not positive.
Quentin is so excited that he met and got the autograph of a "famous movie star"!
We finished up the day with a trip to the Spaghetti Factory, because the boys hadn't eaten enough already!
We all had a great time and I'm so thankful that I get to check it off of my "To Do" list. Now, that just leaves the trip to Italy, Skydiving, Win the Lottery, etc...
