Our boys really enjoyed seeing all the sneakers worn by some of their favorite players. My wife and I learned a lot about many players we didn't know, and we all learned about how basketball was...

Didn’t realize that Springfield is where they invented basketball! So visiting here was a must for us. Took cool pictures of the beautiful building. They have a burger place and cold stone creamery...

If you love basketball, it's a must. Go ready to play and enjoy the center court and special dunk section. Hoop heights adjusted for the most vertically challenged visitors 😄 It was a great afternoon and well worth the drive.

An amazing experience that every basketball fan must visit. Exhibits we're amazing and the basketball court kept my son entertained for hours. Will take about 2 hours to go through the exhibits depending on how thorough you are. Gift shop is expensive and the only restaurant on site is subway but there's a pizzeria uno on the other end of the parking lot. An amazing experience
