Globetrotters to hoop it up March 23 in Salisbury

On Thursday night, the entertaining and athletic superstars of the Harlem Globetrotters will take over the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center showing off their basketball tricks and skills.

From longest shot to most three-pointers in one minute, the Globetrotters have set nine new Guinness World Records titles during their current tour.

The Globetrotters currently hold 15 world records and are constantly looking at ways to earn more in the future.

“We are the original trick shot artists, so it is great to reclaim our records and reestablish our dominance,” said Harlem Globetrotters star Big Easy Lofton.  “We have been training hard so to have a day where we push the limits and try some fun yet challenging shots, is pretty cool. I mean, how many people can say they’re a Guinness World Records title holder? We can’t wait to put smiles on people's faces as we demonstrate our skills and talents on the upcoming world tour.”

For the past 90 years the Globetrotters have been entertaining audiences of all ages and with their current tour they will be bringing new energy into old and new basketball tricks.
