goes to: 

the Big Black Man, 6-3, 200, who is 

universally known 'Clown Prince' of 

Basketball, and toured internationally 

for Goodwill throughout sports 

entertainment, and, described as a 

'true national treasure, by Michael Jordan, 

he was praised by Wilt Chamberlain and others, 

also he played for the Harlem Globetrotters, 

then started another fun team called the 

'Bucketeers,' then he played with the 

'Shooting Stars,' then with his team, 

'Meadowlark Lemon's Harlem All Stars,' 

then he returned to the Globetrotters, 

and after a while he retired, he then 

became a Hall of Famer in 2003, but 

more importantly, he became an ordained 

minister in 1986 and started Meadowlark 

Lemon Ministries in 1994,

founded by Ralph Winge, D.D.S.

in 2025 to acknowledge, praise,

and hold high, with cheer, the untold 

numbers of International Black Men 

and Women, both past and present, 

that made us go, "Wow!...Whoa!...

...and...OMGosh!" in their nonstop, 

valiant, and always surprising, 

individual and team 

efforts to put the ball through the 

hoop the most, to win games and 

championships!
