Should I visit the basketball hall of fame in Springfield? |
Travel Info My family will be driving to Buffalo and Boston this July. I am a HUGE basketball fan as is my son and we are contemplating a visit to the basketball hall of fame. So I am wondering if anyone has visited and what you thought of it. What is their to do? How do the exhibits compare in terms of scope, interactivity, expertise, diversity of exhibits to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Baseball in Cooperstown and Hockey in Toronto (thought hockey was ok, loved baseball and rock however baseball is my fav sport or passion for that matter). Will a devoted, religious hoops fan feel as if he has achieved nirvana or would he simply feel unimpressed? Travel Tips Yes, you should definitely visit. We have been to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Cooperstown and the Basketball Hall of Fame and I would say the Basketball Hall of Fame is right up there. It has recently been renovated, there are a ton of interactive exhibits, it shows the history of the sport, lots of facts, cool stuff like comparing your shoe size to the players, you can be a sports telecaster like on ESPN, a huge basketball court to play on. You should go there or you will be kicking yourself. There is an video tour on their website: http://www.hoophall.com/ I believe it is bigger than Cooperstown. My family is sports obsessed and they really liked it. PS-As I am sure you know but wanted to mention it: The Hall of Fame is not in Boston. It is in Springfield, MA which is about 90 miles from Boston. It is right off of Interstate 91 and you can see it from the highway. |
