This post has been sponsored by the American Airlines Center to bring you a fun event for the whole family! 

Admit it… just reading the title of this post, we now have officially gotten the theme song stuck in your head. It’s almost impossible not to! For 90 years, the Harlem Globetrotters have been whistling and humming this tune for audiences everywhere — both nationally and internationally, and this January they’re returning to Dallas and the American Airlines Center. 

2016 Group-Header

This iconic exhibition basketball team will be at the American Airlines Center for 2 days only on January 30-January 31st. The Globetrotters are making it so easy for you to come out to a game with your families. This family-friendly show features some of “the greatest athletes on the planet”. Kids of all ages will love watching their incredible ball handling, dynamic dunks off the rim, and trick shots, side-splitting comedy and unequaled on-court fan interaction.

In their 90th year, the Globetrotters will face a great challenge this year, as the infamous Washington Generals are more determined than ever to beat the Globetrotters. The Generals, the last team to beat the Globetrotters, are now coached by a former member of that 1971 team. They are on a mission and will do whatever it takes to win, with a new strategy that is sure to give the Globetrotters a run for their money.

HG 2016 600x300Tickets are for your whole family, BUT the real fun begins when you bring your favorite group of friends! 

Get to the game early and take part in a once-in-a-lifetime experience with your family where you get to actually spend time on the court with the Globetrotters one-on-one –shooting, trying out ball tricks, autographs and photos. The unique 30-minute pre-show, “Magic Pass,” will create memories of a lifetime.

After virtually every game, Globetrotter stars remain on the court for autographs and photographs with fans.* Magic Pass pre-show tickets are $15.00 and requires a ticket purchase as well.

Krystal is a Dallas-native who began her career as a fourth grade teacher in Richardson RISD, but quickly changed paths to became a stay-at-home mom in 2011. Through a happy coincidence, she stumbled upon (what was then known as) Dallas Moms Blog in 2012 and found a community she’d been looking for since coming a mom. Shortly after joining the team, she gratefully accepted the “baton” passed to her as new owner of the site, and took off with it running full speed! Krystal not only helped to grow Dallas Moms into a large parenting resource, but also launched Collin County Moms in 2016; providing those in the north Dallas suburbs their community resource platform. While building a community, uniting the moms, and growing a business around this passion was a dream come true, after almost 10 years, Krystal officially stepped down as owner, and is now focusing on raising her 4 boys with her husband, Tim, and rediscovering old hobbies.
