Buckets Blakes and Fight Time Lang of the Harlem Globetrotters dribbled the rafters of the old Maple Leaf Gardens to add some history to an historic place. Buckets made an improbable shot from the catwalk to a hoop over 130-feet below on the ice. The made basket was only the 2nd attempt ever tried.
The Globetrotters Canadian tour will bring games to 18 Canadian cities in six provinces – highlighted by two games in Mississauga on Saturday, April 2 and one game at Ricoh Coliseum in Toronto on Sunday, April 2. Full schedule and tickets are available at www.harlemglobetrotters.com/canada.
The Globetrotters were founded in 1926 – only five years before the Maple Leaf Gardens opened. The complex is now the Mattamy Athletic Centre and home to the Ryerson Rams.
