Basketball Hall of Fame

On Monday we went to the Basketball of Fame in Springfield. Our friend is doing a summer internship there so we were able to get in for free! Some of my favorite things we saw was the honor ring. It the top floor and it is where they have pictures of all the hall of famers with some awesome artifacts. I loved seeing the olympic medals and seeing how the uniforms have evolved over time. The second floor has some fun interactive things like finding out your vertical leap, how to jump to get a rebound, one on one video game,and seeing if you could palm a basketball.  There is also a walk through time line of basketball. They also had some of the different jerseys and video clips. On the bottom floor they have a court where you can practice slam dunks and also play basketball with all the different versions of the hoop, including the peach basket. It was a fun afternoon spent with friends.
