America’s favorite novelty basketball team, the Harlem Globetrotters, will return to the KFC Yum! Center tomorrow at 7 p.m. to dunk, dance and dribble as they face off against their eternal rivals, the Washington Generals. (The odds are pretty slim for the Generals, though, given that they’ve lost to the Globetrotters more than 27,000 times.)

The Globetrotters are the only act who’ve returned to the Yum! Center every year since it opened (except 2021), according to Sandra Moran, director of marketing at ASM Global. UofL has at least five former Globetrotters among its alumni.

Tickets to the game/show are $25-$132. (If you miss the Louisville show, the team will also be at Rupp Arena in Lexington on Saturday.)
