December 27, 2015, Harlem Globetrotter Meadowlark G. Lemon died at 83.
Meadowlark George Lemon III was born in Wilmington, North Carolina, on April 25, 1932. He discovered the Harlem Globetrotters at 11 years old while watching a newsreel at the local theater. He was determined to one day make the team. Lemon didn’t have enough money to buy basketball equipment, so he made his own. He made the Basketball hoop out of an onion sack and a coat hanger and used an empty carnation milk can as his ball. According to Lemon, he made his first shot, a two-pointer.
He continued to play basketball in high school. Realizing the fierce competition, he logged long hours on the court to strengthen his skills. He briefly attended Florida Agriculture and Mechanical University, a historically black university in Tallahassee, Florida. He was drafted into the Army in 1952. He completed basic training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, before serving two years in Salzburg, Germany.
While in Germany, Lemon played on an Army base’s basketball team, averaging 55 points a game. He was discharged in 1954. He then played for the Kansas City All-Stars for a year before joining the Harlem Globetrotters. Lemon played for 23 consecutive years with the Harlem Globetrotters and earned the name “Clown Prince of Basketball.” In the 1980s, he started his comedic basketball team “Meadowlark Lemon’s Bucketeers,” and then he established “The Shooting Stars” before founding “Meadowlark Lemon’s Harlem All-Stars.” Lemon returned to the Harlem Globetrotters in 1993 for a 50-game season.
In 1986, Lemon became an ordained minister. In 1989, he founded “Camp Meadowlark,” a camp designed to improve young people’s basketball skills while teaching them the importance of education and staying healthy. He earned his Doctor of Divinity in 1998. In 2003, Lemon was inducted into the NBA Basketball Hall of Fame.

Headcanons of what years the Papas (and Sister Imperator) were born + explanation using math and Kiss the Go-Goat (please kill me)
Because I am losing my fucking mind. If any of you ever questioned my mental stability, this is the proof that I have none. - Jez
Papa Nihil - 1917
Going with the general headcanon of him dying at 103 years back in 2020, Nihil would have to be born in 1917. This would make him 52 during the Kiss the Go-Goat incident in 1969.
He would have Secondo and Terzo at 42/43, depending on the month of his birthday.
Sister Imperator - 1935
I've always assumed Nihil and her have a big age gap, considering how different their states are when they're old. She also looks really young in Kiss the Go-Goat, so I decided to go with the age her absolutely beautiful actress was back then, which is 34. This makes her 88 now.
Primo - 1932
He was said to be 80 when he left the stage in 2012, which means he would be 37 during the Kiss the Go-Goat. This also implies Nihil was 15 when Primo was born. It would mean Primo was 86 when he died.
He would also be around 27/28 when his younger brothers were born.
His age while performing would be 76 years old in the beginning and 80 in the end.
Secondo - 1959
Him and Terzo are mostly justified by the Ghostpedia than anything else. They were said to be in their late 50s/early 60s when they died in 2018. Secondo has his date of birth listed as "circa 1950s", while Terzo has his listed as "circa 1960s" despite being only three months apart. So I'm assuming he was born in like novemeber/december of 1959.
This would make him 9 during the Kiss the Go-Goat incident, seeing as it happened in September. It would also make him 58 when he died, since they died in April (aka before his birthday).
His age performing would be 53 in the beginning and 56 in the end.
Terzo - 1960
I pretty much explained everything in the note under Secondo - Ghostpedia, year of death, the three months difference between them... This makes me assume he must've been born in january/february of 1960.
Just like Secondo, this makes him 9 during Kiss the Go-Goat and 58 when he died.
His age performing would be 55 in the beginning and 57 in the end.
Copia - 1970
In Kiss the Go-Goat, we can see that it's hinted that Sister is in early stages of pregnancy in September of 1969. That would imply he was born somewhere next year, probably around June. This makes him 53 this year and 50 when he was anointed Papa.
When he started performing, he would be 48.

Happy 90th birthday to New York’s RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL.
December 27, 1932 - the height of the Great Depression, the magnificent Art Deco theater opened as a palace for the people, a place of beauty where ordinary people could see high-quality entertainment. It is still magnificent!

🔸December 1st, 2021 - World AIDS Day
Mercuryphoenixtrust.com
"We are here to celebrate the life of Freddie Mercury, an extraordinary rock star who rushed across our cultural landscape like a comet shooting across the sky. We are also here to tell the whole world that he, like others we have lost to AIDS, died before his time.
The bright light of his talent exhilarates us even now that his life has been so cruelly extinguished.
I needn't have happened.
It shouldn't have happened.
Please let's not let it happen again"

“When I grow up, I know exactly how I want my hair to look. Like Anouk Aimee's in La Dolce Vita." From "Introducing Rock 'N' Roll's Lady Raunch: Patti Smith" by Amy Gross, Mademoiselle, September 1975
“I was so fucked-up-looking in school, but it just didn't matter. Besides me wanting to be an artist, I wanted to be a movie star. I don't mean like an American movie star. I mean like Jeanne Moreau or Anouk Aimee in La Dolce Vita. I couldn't believe her in those dark glasses and that black dress and that sports car. I thought that was the heaviest thing I ever saw. Anouk Aimee with that black eye. It made me always want to have a black eye forever. It made me want to get a guy to knock me around. I'd always look great. I got great sunglasses.” From “Patti Smith: Can You Hear Me Ethiopia?" by Scott Cohen, Circus Magazine, December 1976
Born on this day ninety-two years ago: that most feline and inscrutable of mid-twentieth century French actresses, Anouk Aimée (née Nicole Françoise Florence Dreyfus, 27 April 1932). She’s a haunting, sensual and Garbo-like presence in the glory days of European art cinema. My favourite performances by Aimée: Les Amants de Montparnasse (1958), La Tête contre les murs (1959), La Dolce Vita (1960) – unforgettable as the most elegant jaded rich nymphomaniac in cinema history (pictured)! – Lola (1961), Model Shop (1968) and Justine (1969). But hell, I also love Aimée as the cruel lesbian queen in trashy sword-and-sandal biblical epic Sodom and Gomorrah (1962), with her voice dubbed by an American actress! It’s fascinating to contemplate that at the height of her international fame in the sixties, Hollywood considered Aimée for two high profile roles: the part played by Faye Dunaway in The Thomas Crown Affair (1968) – and The Baroness in The Sound of Music (1965)!

Radio City Music Hall
Radio City Music Hall is an entertainment venue and theater at 1260 Avenue of the Americas, within Rockefeller Center, in the Midtown Manhattan neighborhood of New York City. Nicknamed "The Showplace of the Nation", it is the headquarters for the Rockettes. Radio City Music Hall was designed by Edward Durell Stone and Donald Deskey in the Art Deco style.
Radio City Music Hall was built on a plot of land that was originally intended for a Metropolitan Opera House, although plans for the opera house were canceled in 1929. It opened on December 27, 1932, as part of the construction of Rockefeller Center. The 5,960-seat Music Hall was the larger of two venues built for Rockefeller Center's "Radio City" section, the other being Center Theatre; the "Radio City" name later came to apply only to the Music Hall. It was largely successful until the 1970s, when declining patronage nearly drove the theater to bankruptcy. Radio City Music Hall was designated a New York City Landmark in May 1978, and it was restored and allowed to remain open. The theater was extensively renovated in 1999.
Radio City's four-tiered auditorium was the world's largest when it opened. The theater also contains a variety of art. Although Radio City Music Hall was initially intended to host stage shows, within a year of its opening it was converted into a movie palace, hosting performances in a film-and-stage-spectacle format through the 1970s, and was the site of several movie premieres. By the late 20th and early 21st centuries, it primarily hosted concerts, including by leading pop and rock musicians, and live stage shows such as the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. The Music Hall has also hosted televised events including the Grammy Awards, the Tony Awards, the Daytime Emmy Awards, the MTV Video Music Awards, the NFL Draft, as well as graduation ceremonies for New York University and Barnard College.
