I remember seeing old footage of Mr. Lemon where an older woman was enjoying the show and Meadowlark pulled her out of the crowd to share a dance with her. The woman was loving the attention and her expression was priceless. Meadowlark was enjoying it as usual too. Hubert " Geese " Ausbie also did that as well on occasion. Other members of the Globetrotters would " steal " women's purses , only to pull out their drivers licenses and share a laugh with the referees at the picture their " victims " took .
Meadowlark was also famous for his " confetti in the water bucket " routine . Meadowlark would chase opposing players and team mates alike with the " water bucket " . The " opposing " player would duck and an unsuspecting fan would get hit with confetti . Sometimes though, the water bucket really did have water in it. You just never knew .
" quote " "Meadowlark was the most sensational, awesome, incredible basketball player I've ever seen," NBA great and former Globetrotter Wilt Chamberlain said shortly before his death in 1999. "People would say it would be Dr. J or even (Michael) Jordan. For me it would be Meadowlark Lemon."
I always think of the Globetrotters whenever I hear their theme song "Sweet Georgia Brown"

Mr. Lemon spent the last years of his life as an ordained minister. He spent time at youth basketball camps and detention centers for youthful defenders. Mr. Lemon was quoted as saying, " "I feel if I can touch a kid in youth prison, he won't go to the adult prison," Lemon said in 2003.
Medowlark was a great entertainer with a gift of touching people and will be sorely missed.
Rest in Peace Medowlark.
The Clown Prince of basketball, Meadowlark Lemon of the world famous Harlem Globetrotters has passed away.
" quote " A sign of his crossover appeal, Lemon was inducted into both the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and the International Clown Hall of Fame.
Mr. Lemon was good enough by far to play professionally but instead wanted to entertain as he loved people.

I remember seeing old footage of Mr. Lemon where an older woman was enjoying the show and Meadowlark pulled her out of the crowd to share a dance with her. The woman was loving the attention and her expression was priceless. Meadowlark was enjoying it as usual too. Hubert " Geese " Ausbie also did that as well on occasion. Other members of the Globetrotters would " steal " women's purses , only to pull out their drivers licenses and share a laugh with the referees at the picture their " victims " took .
Meadowlark was also famous for his " confetti in the water bucket " routine . Meadowlark would chase opposing players and team mates alike with the " water bucket " . The " opposing " player would duck and an unsuspecting fan would get hit with confetti . Sometimes though, the water bucket really did have water in it. You just never knew .
" quote " "Meadowlark was the most sensational, awesome, incredible basketball player I've ever seen," NBA great and former Globetrotter Wilt Chamberlain said shortly before his death in 1999. "People would say it would be Dr. J or even (Michael) Jordan. For me it would be Meadowlark Lemon."
I always think of the Globetrotters whenever I hear their theme song "Sweet Georgia Brown"

Mr. Lemon spent the last years of his life as an ordained minister. He spent time at youth basketball camps and detention centers for youthful defenders. Mr. Lemon was quoted as saying, " "I feel if I can touch a kid in youth prison, he won't go to the adult prison," Lemon said in 2003.
Medowlark was a great entertainer with a gift of touching people and will be sorely missed.
Rest in Peace Medowlark.
