Chicago City Slam

For the second time since 2008, 7-Eleven City Slam presented by Brisk returns to Chicago! On Saturday, June 27th, four of the top dunkers in the world will converge in Chicago at Seward Park (375 W. Elm Street) to kick off the first of three competitions in major metropolitan areas around the United States. 

Contestants for the Chicago event include:

"Sir Isaac" White four-time winner of the Houston Rockets Blacktop Battle Dunk Contest, currently traveling with the Harlem Globetrotters.

Jared Roth winner of the Venice League Beach (VLB)  Slam Dunk Contest and current member of Team Flight Brothers, a troupe of talented dunk masters touring the USA as halftime performers for major sporting events.

Steven Harris recently toured the country with the Harlmen Wizards and is regarded as one of the most explosive Dunkers in the country with his 46" inch Vertical Leap. He has never lost a Slam Dunk contest, most recently winning a Dunk contest by leaping over a 7'1 person as a prop.

 Antjuan Ball was the National High School Slam Dunk Contest Champion in 2011 and most recently played college basketball at West Texas A&M University where he is the 2-time Midnight Madness Slam Dunk Champion and was also featured on Sport Center's Top 10 Plays in February of 2015.

You can be part of the action without spending a penny - not only to cheer for the contestants but to witness Chicago Bears wide-receiver, Alshon Jeffery, and Chicago Bulls power-forward, Taj Gibson, critique amazing performances of slam dunking athleticism and artistry! 

City Slam will be televised on ESPN2 later this summer on Tuesday, July 28th. (While we cannot guarentee your 15 seconds of fame, it is another exciting aspect of this weekend spectacle) RSVP NOW for general admission to this FREE high-flying event!
