It’s a sports entertainment event for families. It’s not a competitive basketball game, they will be performing lots of tricks and interacting with the audience. It’s a good time. Dress comfortably.
It’s an exhibition basketball event between the Harlem globe trotters and the Washington generals. More of a comedy show. It takes place in a basketball arena. Casual attire is fine but dress similar to the rest of your party in case there are other activities you will go to (dinner, drinks, etc)
Wear whatever you want to wear. There’s no dress code.
It’s basically a basketball game if clowns were playing it only the clowns are not dressed in clown uniforms theyre dressed in basketball uniforms. Also the clowns are actually pretty darn good athletes.
I have a hilarious story about the Harlem Globetrotters.
I was trying to get my little boy into basketball and he just wasn’t into it. He just had no interest in sports, period. He just didn’t find them interesting.
I would be lying if I said I loved that, but I did accept it.
Then, one year, somebody got us tickets to go and see the Harlem Globetrotters, and he just loved that whole experience so much. It awoke something in him that I cannot describe.
When we got home, he wanted HG gear and he wanted a basketball and he showed more interest in them than anything I’ve ever seen him show interest in – definitely in the sporting world
I remember we were watching the NBA Finals later that year and he asked me who would win between whoever was playing and the Globetrotters?
I just laughed and said, oh, buddy, any NBA team would kill the Globetrotters. He looked at me like I had four heads and clearly did not believe me.
Anyway, that year, he would go down in the basement or the driveway or the garage and would practice shooting or dribbling and he got pretty good at it.
However, he clearly did not understand the assignment. When the real games started, he was trying to play them like a Harlem Globetrotters. He was running down on one leg and dribbling a ball real low through his legs and all the rest of it. He was chatting up the crowd and saying all kinds of crazy things. It was the craziest shit you’ve ever seen. What’s my wife and I figured out what was going on, we just were belly laughing. I’m sure the other parents thought we were insane. However, if they knew the backstory, I’m sure they would’ve laughed as well.
It’s a basketball game. But more for fun than for actual points or winning. It’s done strictly entertainment or sometimes for charity. The Globetrotters do lots of tricks with the ball and while making baskets. It’s a lot of fun. I saw them when I was a kid. It’s definitely a casual dress code. Jeans, tshirts, sports jerseys, hoodies, basketball shorts. Just like you’d wear to any sporting event.
My first date was to see them back in 1973 or 74. I didn’t like basketball back then and still don’t. These guys are amazing! Enjoy their performance and dress like you’re going to a basketball game 🏀🏀🏀
You should wear Washington Generals gear and loudly cheer for the Generals while yelling at the refs for the blatant on court shenanigans that those cheating Globetrotters are pulling.
It’s exhibition basketball. They “play” for fun; it’s not competition like an NCAA or NBA game. You can wear whatever you want because you’re not out on the court playing.
It’s a show, not a real basketball game. Wear whatever you want. Athletic wear like you’d wear to a normal sporting event would be normal.
It’s a pretend basketball game where the Globetrotters perform tricks . The opposing team isn’t actually trying to play defense they just try to look like they’re trying while the Globetrotters do the show
I’m going to assume you’re not from here and that this is a serious question. Just dress as you would for any sporting event. T-shirt, jeans, sneakers or similar. Look at the way Americans on TV dress for a basketball game. You can wear a favorite team shirt or the shirt you bought as a souvenir yesterday.
Wear extremely tight fitting leather clothes and very large bright red clown shoes. Paint your head with mustard and make sure to wear a tiara. Then you’ll be ready.
It’s not a sporting event, it’s a religious ceremony.

As a kid, I wore what I wore to school…. because I was at school.
Now, I would tell you to wear what you would wear to a professional basketball game.
It’s a basketball game. A highly entertaining basketball game. So, I’d wear whatever I’d wear to a basketball game.
It’s a combination basketball game and circus performance.
So wear whatever you’d wear to one of those.
Wear whatever you want. The Harlem Globetrotters are a trick/performing basketball team and wear is casual.
Look them up online to see what they do.
It’s like basketball… But interesting!

Wear a Washington Generals jersey and sit right up front.
Casuals event, basketball game, but more entertainment than an actual game.
My knee jerk reaction was “like you’re out of scooby doo” which I think is still an American reference
But yes, it’s a sporting event, and a novelty one
My rich person dream is to buy out all the tickets to a Globetrotters game and pack it to the rafters with a rowdy, hostile pro-Generals crowd.
Wheat what you would wear to a basketball game.
A suit and a tie is required. Top hat is highly encouraged
A tuxedo would be marvelous.
You can literally wear anything you want
If you showed up in a baby blue Tuxedo people would just laugh and think you’re trying to get included in the spectacle
The Globetrotters is part basketball game / part stage performance / part improv / and part stand up comedy
Pretty much anything goes
Wear whatever you want to wear. There’s no dress code.
It’s basically a basketball game if clowns were playing it only the clowns are not dressed in clown uniforms theyre dressed in basketball uniforms. Also the clowns are actually pretty darn good athletes.
suits and ties, show some respect
Clothes. Wear clothes. Preferably the most cliched ethnic dress for your culture. Like say lederhosen if you’re Bavarian.

One of those inflatable T-Rex suits.
The Globetrotters are awesome, and very skilled in their performances. Enjoy them, and as said, dress comfortably!
Anything with red white and blue. I remember going at about 7 years old in 1981
Tuxedo with top hat and monocle 🧐
You need to find a Washington Generals jersey.
green and yellow :3
If you want to have fun with it just wear anything red white and or blue
A shirt, maybe pants, preferably some underwear.
It’s a basketball game
You can wear whatever you like. It’s a lot of fun.
My first date was to see them back in 1973 or 74. I didn’t like basketball back then and still don’t. These guys are amazing! Enjoy their performance and dress like you’re going to a basketball game 🏀🏀🏀

So jealous. This guy is going to have so much fun.
You should 100% wear a tuxedo.
It will be fun! Just dress casual and comfortable.
Clothes
It’s a show, not a real basketball game. Wear whatever you want. Athletic wear like you’d wear to a normal sporting event would be normal.
It’s a pretend basketball game where the Globetrotters perform tricks . The opposing team isn’t actually trying to play defense they just try to look like they’re trying while the Globetrotters do the show
It’s basketball. So either dress like a basket, or a ball.
It’s rigged
It’s kind of like this but not exactly.
Black tie with tails. Don’t forget the top hat, the white gloves, and the spats for your dress shoes.
I would wear a tuxedo normally. Seriously though would you wear something different to a “sports event” from the gloveteotters
Don’t bet money against them.
Dress sporty. It’s a basketball show
Wear nothing but an American flag draped around your body.
You can wear literally anything you want for that one. I would recommend sneakers though. Yes go with that vibe.
Kinda thing that nobody knows so it will be a mix.
Some casual clothes. Go curly.
Google them to see their schtick
Basketball game. Dress casual or as you wish. You can dress up if you want to.
It’s a comedic basketball game, sort of. They are excellent players but they play to the crowd comedically also.
Saw them lonnnng ago.
It’s a fake basketball game played for laughs. I went as a kid and it was a lot of fun. It’s casual, tshirt, shorts and sneakers
Comfortable clothes. The Globetrotters are basically a circus comedy act in the form of basketball.
Just make sure you bet everything on the Generals. I hear they’re due.
You’re not going to be playing, right? Because my answer very much depends on that factor
Wear the most out of place thing ever. Like cargo shorts and a buttonup with jacket and tie..
Im jelly.
Jeans & shirt
Fun to watch basketball hyjinks
Thong, pasties, combat boots, fruit hat, night vision goggles, Chewbacca bandolier, programmer sox, cpr dummy flayed face.
It’s the standard audience consume iirc
I’ve seen the Globetrotters and it’s a blast! It’s basically a basketball trick/stunt show. Wear a t-shirt/jersey, shorts/jeans, and tennis shoes
I’m going to assume you’re not from here and that this is a serious question. Just dress as you would for any sporting event. T-shirt, jeans, sneakers or similar. Look at the way Americans on TV dress for a basketball game. You can wear a favorite team shirt or the shirt you bought as a souvenir yesterday.
Even though it’s basically the same corny act that’s been around since the 70s it’s still entertaining..
Did you Google what they are???
Wear a rain jacket for when they throw the bucket of ‘water’ into the first row.
Jeans and a t shirt. It’s just basketball comedy.
Red, white and blue.
Its basketball and comedy. Wear whatever.
i’d dress casually; you’re going to be sitting/standing in the seats of a basketball court. sneakers are the best choice
The poor Washington Generals. They have the worst luck
It’s an exhibition, they’ll be doing weird shit and pulling off sick tricks. Wear whatever you want lol
It’s a novelty sports performance. Think a basketball themed circus performance. Wear what you would wear to a sporting event.
It’s trick basketball. I took my kids once and we had a blast! It’s great entertainment. Wear whatever you want.
It’s a basketball game so….suit and tie.
All of them, I’m a Scooby Doo fan. I’ve watched Scoob meets Cass Elliot, The Three Stooges, and Scooby Doo meets every damn body.
Wear extremely tight fitting leather clothes and very large bright red clown shoes. Paint your head with mustard and make sure to wear a tiara. Then you’ll be ready.
It’s not a sporting event, it’s a religious ceremony.
tuxedo
tuxedo, or a three-piece, if you want to look like a chump
It’s an incredibly formal event please wear a full tuxedo
It is a super fun basketball event. We got to go as kids and a blast. I am not even a basketball fan, but this was still awesome.
Just dress casually and have a good time!
