"ShowBoat" Robinson's Harlem Globetravelers will be in Hoisington, Saturday, November 14. Action is slated to get under way at 7 p.m. Tickets are $8 in advance and $10 at the door. Advanced tickets are available at the Hoisington Chamber of Commerce.
Robinson, the CEO of the Harlem Globetravelers, is a former Harlem Roadking. Lamont "Showboat" Robinson formed the team in 1995 (originally called Harlem Roadkings) after touring with the Harlem Globetrotters in the late 1980's. Robinson played high school and college ball growing up and competed professionally in Europe.
Robinson says a big part of the Globetravelers is to discourage kids from drug and alcohol abuse.
According to the team's Web site (www.basketballcomedy.com), "ShowBoat" was inspired by the "Great Meadowlark Lemon" and has become the "Comedy King" of basketball. Fans will be thrilled by the supporting cast of the former Globetrotters, collegiate All-Americans, and ex-NBA players with rim rattling slam dunks and concert-like musical scores.
In conjunction with the event the Hoisington Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors will host a Sloppy Joe Feed beginning at 5 p.m. Tickets are available at the chamber office for a suggested donation of $5 for adults and children 6 and older, $3 for children 5 and under. Tea, lemonade and dessert are also included.
