If they can move from "we're all going to watch the Bananas game" to "we're all going to watch banana ball" to "we're all going to watch the Party Animals (or whatever)" then maybe you have a thing. HUGE IFs all over that. But honestly, being The Globetrotters here is a BFD
Yeah like the Globetrotters are an institution built out of Black basketball being a more entertaining form, and this is....not that
sure, I meant from the family entertainment angle. I don't expect it to be cheap to see a Bananas game, but I expect it to be value for money compared to the rinsing everyone expects from a day out at the Big 4 leagues. Theyre the circus, the ice capades, etc and found a way to sell twice the tix
Oh for sure I was just running past you a bit to point out their thing has cultural foundation in addition to commercial success 😅
yeah i just think its a stretch to think it might be appropriation when the globetrotters are much further from their original barnstorming and firmly in the family entertainment space
If you're like "we're building a sport" you have a LONG way to go including overcoming your own name branding issues
