    The Hall of Fame is amazing. There is so much rich history of the sport packed into a small package here. If you have the opportunity to come to an enshrinement you won't be disappointed. Lots to do and see mixed with great restaurants and lodging all on the same land. Check for discounts and events in advance so you can enjoy the experience. Some of the exterior is under renovation but the inside is open for business.
  • By Doug Warry
    Great place to go and spend a few hours and see the history of basketball. They offer AAA, Military and Mass. Teachers discount on tickets. Can order tickets online. HoF has places to eat right there. Gift shop has some good buys. Best part is being able to shoot hoops on the court or see how high you can get to dunk.
