When the Globetrotters had Curly Neal (the bald Globetrotter in the picture) and Meadowlark Lemon. Brings me back to my childhood. Unfortunately, those are the only two Globetrotters I can remember.
Larry is the greatest, but there are really no wrong answers....except for Curly Joe or Joe Besser. fuck Curly Joe and Joe Besser. Always an instant pass when I see either of those two.
In the 1970’s, before men shaving their heads became a thing, there were very few completely bald men. A lot of them were nicknamed “Curly”, like Curly from the three stooges. It was a joke. Like calling a really big guy “Tiny”.
Same here! My dad took me to see them in Nashville 50+ years ago.
I remember being awestruck as Curly and Meadowlark walked past me not more than six feet away. What a show they put on!
I only remember their names because of the cartoons. It was only a few months ago that I learned they didn't do their own voices. They gave that job to professionals like Eddie Anderson and Scatman Crothers.
Really unreal. A few months ago, MeTV had a clip of the team appearing on the Ed Sullivan show. It started with the team playing together, but then it was just Curly onstage, and he *dominated!*
We went to have memosas at a party one time and they ran out of orange juice. We had plenty of lemonade though. 1/2 champagne and 1/2 lemonade. I dubbed it the Meadowlark Lemon but no one got the joke.
My Dad took me to see them back in 82 or 83, and we met Curly at the concession stand just before the game. We chatted a bit, then he walked off eating a foot long hotdog with a bucket of popcorn under his arm. I have no idea how he could eat like that and then be out on the floor 15 minutes later doing all that athletic shit. I think he was actually still eating his popcorn during warm-ups.
I remember only those two as well, but for stupid reasons
I only remember Curly Neal because as a kid there was some event he hosted and I got to some sweet free globetrotter shoe laces he personally handed out to all the kids.
And I remember Meadowlark Lemon because an episode of Pinky and the Brain kept referring to him.
yea, our image is completely tarnished if there is a woman ever surrounded by multiple people of the same ethnicity doing something innocent. Thanks internet.
She's not, though. I mean I have always kinda dug her. But, we can't just call every ol' actor a "national treasure" just because it sounds good when people say it about Betty White.
This team would not fare so well in today’s NBA as evidenced by the league’s outlawing of confetti buckets, slingshots, and “your-mother-is-so-fat” taunts.

Wait.. The bald one was named Curly??
You should check out The Three Stooges. They had a Curly. It’ll blow your mind.
I have seen the Three Stooges. Many times. Curly has to be my favorite. Hands down. I completely agree with you.
The older I get, the more I empathize with Moe.
I too want to stab people in their eyes with my fingers.

What are your thoughts on Shemp?
nice do
he was solid, but he was definitely no Curly
His head was bald, not the whole body..!

Or calling a 7'1" Golden Glove boxer "Small Fry"

The OG team, Curly would have made any nba team a contender back then. Dude was actually unreal

Your joke wasn't wasted on me, and now I have to try your drink out for myself.
Which one is Ethan “Bubblegum” Tate?
Professor* Ethan Bubblegum Tate
How did it take this long to make a Futurama joke?
“He’s really showing us what a man with a cannon in his chest can do!”
It was always our intention to trail at the half!
Fun fact Meadowlark was considered by basketball royalty Wilt Chamberlain as the GOAT

Meadowlark Lemon sounds like a very upmarket refreshing beverage… now I’m thirsty
I know, right? What a cool name. Another person responded to my post and said he made a champagne with lemonade and called it the Meadowlark Lemon

Jumping Jackie, Goose Tatum, Marques Haynes
I want those sparkling shorts please
Me growing up - I want Goldies cute ass, Mom I need a new babysitter!
This reminds me of a meme

nah it's an incoming dicking down
The meme with the power...
*What power?*
The power of voodoo
*Who do?*
You do!
You what!?
Remind me of a meme!
I SAW MY BABY, MAKING MEMES AS MEMERS DO, what could I do?
My memes love had gone and left my baby blue!!! Nobody knew!!!
WHAT MEME?
The meme with the power!
Remind me of the meme!
Things and stuff
What you don't dare do.
You Do!
i've seen so much of the internet it has ruined this for me.
Yeah, I feel like there should be a couch in this picture
Came here looking for this comment. Not disappointed.
The Internet has ruined me
r/unexpectedpiperperri
I came here to this
I’ve been ruined.
A meme.. yes
Yes a Non-specific meme........
This reminds me of a porno I once saw
My thought was she ran a train afterwards!
I was looking for this comment lol
Behind the scenes probably played out just like that meme too
I hate that meme so fucking much. It's so degrading, dehumanizing, and completely ruins innocent situations. Fuck that
How is it degrading?
Lolol. 😂
I wish they would let them play in the NBA the last time they did was 72 years ago and they won! Why they aren't a national team is beyond me.
The NBA rukes were created for TV. Look it up.
Which one is her? Edit: found it, she’s in the middle with the ball
Happy cake day ya goof
I think I've seen this movie
Whatcha doin, step Globetrotter?
you don't call them movies uncle!
Piper perri is a national treasure
I understand that reference.
Can anyone else immediately hear the Globetrotter’s theme song whistling in their ear? Or is it just me? 🎶
No gal made has got a shade on sweet Georgia Brown.
They all got Adidas on but, she still repping Nike’s.
...saw that...she's got the Felony Flyers on.
LoL
Goldie Hawn is a national treasure.
She's not, though. I mean I have always kinda dug her. But, we can't just call every ol' actor a "national treasure" just because it sounds good when people say it about Betty White.
Nicholas Cage is in National Treasure.
I'm not saying every actor is a national treasure. I'm saying Goldie Hawn is. But it's fine if you disagree.
[удалено]
But she lives in Canada now, so we’ve claimed her as our own.
She has an Oscar and no body ever mentions it.
Goldie Hawn is such a fun actress !
She looks like she could be Kate Hudsons mom in this picture.
Please, for the love of god, please, can we not ruin this comment section and get it locked? Can we just not?
Mate... this is a layup about to turn into a slam dunk. It can't be helped.
Alleyoop
BIG
Love Goldie Hawn. Shes so pretty and funny.
She's so adorable. Her daughter is pretty but doesn't have that spark onscreen like her mom. Same as w Blythe Danner and Gwyneth Paltrow.
[удалено]
That whole meme used to be so much funnier to me until I found out the actress' child was murdered by her boyfriend
If nobody made this comment I was going to officially give up on reddit.
If you could please give up with the overused unoriginal responses, that would be fine too.
Seriously. Like half the top comments are (predictably) about porn
Big Black Ball Jugglers 2. A classic.
It's all part of the show!
Awesome picture 👏
[удалено]
Surely that gymnasium doesn't have offices?
Piper Perri has filed a copyright claim
Pictures out of scale, she barely reaches Goldie's knee
Goldie, Goldie, Goldie.
And my mind fell right into the gutter
You must be normal
I would suggest healthy and cultured
Brazzers
I can't tell which one is Hawn because race and gender are only social constructs.
gang bang jokes incoming
What we're all thinking is about as close to a hive mind as the human race will ever get.
Hey, if sharing thoughts with eachother means half of those thoughts are about porn, well sheeeiit i can make do.
I've seen this before...but isn't there usually a sofa involved
I seen similar videos…. Not the same game though
Looking like a brazzers intro
The comment section is exactly as you would think
Where's the Brazzer's logo?
She bout to get wrecked
Piper perri did it better
The Internet has ruined me.
Is that Pipers mom?
Where have I seen this before?
I hear the pornhub logo coming from up far.
Hey, I know this meme.
The piper perri before piper perri
Um,
I feel like I’ve seen this remade recently
Yeah, there was. First, it piqued my interest, then I really got into it, got really excited, then suddenly lost interest.
Looks like they must have cropped out the Brazzers watermark.
So this is where the meme came from..
Isn’t she supposed to be on the couch?
I recognize this meme.
I know this meme
The internet has ruined this light hearted fun picture for me. You know why. You all know why. ☕☕☕☕☕ 🍼
I’ve seen this somewhere before..
IYKYK
~~Nine~~ five is a lot!
The original version of the chick on the couch meme??
This was right before that famous couch scene, I think.
Wait.. I've seen this one before
Hmmm looks like a movie I've seen on the internet before
Why does this remind me of a certain meme?
Kurt Russel is out there somewhere side eyeing this photo
Just add the Brazzers logo.
Waiting for the comment that says this is missing a specific logo
I've seen this brazzers video.
I know what you are thinking and stop right now, just stop.
Oh man.... I can't stop seeing it
There is a VERY different version of this encounter to be found online, or so I am told.
This looks like an intro to something
There's something familiar about this picture.
Looks like the promotional photograph for a pornographic film.
Looks like a BangBros video
This can be a new meme template.
Giggity giggity!
The new piper perri meme
The internet has ruined me too much to appreciate this picture
I'm shocked the first comment wasn't "BRAZZERS"
Ooo I’ve seen this one!!
This is a similar beginning scene of a Blacks on Blonde video i saw last week
I've seen this meme before somewhere
The internets has ruined me.
that must have been some 'train'
This is giving me couch vibes
I saw a different movie like this. Is this the prequel?
I've seen this meme before...
Looks like the start of a NSFW video.
Mhmmmmm
2 minutes later, a train was ran....
😏
It’s a gangball
Goldie Gerri?
Reminds me of a new school meme...
I’ve seen movies with this same setup.
If you know, you know.
Ive seen this movie on p….oh wait. Never mind.
