Former Harlem Globetrotter Meadowlark Lemon & other Basketball Legends
Skilled trick basketball players, with a flair for comedy and entertainment.

    Featuring:  Meadowlark Lemon, the legendary "Clown Prince of Basketball," and former Harlem Globetrotter!

    Meadowlark is a legendary hero in the world of sports. A gifted athlete and hilarious comedian, he is as renowned for his famous confetti-in-the- water bucket routine as he is for hitting hook shots from half court. This ageless hoop master is the most popular and well known player in the history of the Harlem Globetrotters. For more than five decades, he has thrilled millions of fans with his basketball skills and slapstick comedy in nearly 10,000 games. A native of Wilmington, NC, he counts popes, kings, queens

    and presidents among his audiences. In 2003 he was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and is also the recipient of the John W. Bunn Lifetime Achievement Award, the highest honor given by the Basketball Hall of Fame. He has brought smiles to generations of fans in over 100 countries from Australia to Zimbabwe.
