MARTIN, Tenn. – The world-renowned Harlem Globetrotters will make an appearance at the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center on the University of Tennessee at Martin campus on Friday, Dec. 5 as part of their 100-Year Tour.
This event is a once-in-a-century celebration of 100 years of the Harlem Globetrotter's jaw-dropping moves and heart-pounding thrills. The environment promises to be a celebration from the moment you arrive with epic new pregame magic, unforgettable postgame interactions and the most fan-fueled experience in sports. From gravity-defying dunks to game-changing tricks, this is a rare opportunity to experience a Globetrotters squad that has redefined basketball.
Founded in 1926, the Harlem Globetrotters are worldwide icons, synonymous with family entertainment and great basketball skills. The Globetrotters represent 100 years of breaking down barriers, acts of goodwill and a commitment to fans that goes beyond the game. The Globetrotters have entertained more than 148 million fans in 124 countries and territories worldwide, introducing many to the sport of basketball. The team is recognized as pioneers in popularizing the slam dunk, the fast break, the forward/point guard positions and the figure-eight weave.
The Harlem Globetrotters are making their first visit to UT Martin since Jan. 25, 2019. Of course, one of the most famous games in Globetrotter history occurred at Skyhawk Fieldhouse on Jan. 5, 1971. The Washington Generals – playing that night under the New Jersey Reds moniker – won by a 100-99 score in overtime to snap a 2,495-game losing streak to the Globetrotters.
