It looks crooked. Also, that's a very elite old timey stadium with a great view.

If they still used that, ESPN would talk for 5 minutes every broadcast about how that small, claustrophobic tunnel is a way to honor brave, West Virginia miners.

You know what that setting reminds me of? Yep, you guessed it. Folsom Field.

SB I like this one of the old WVU stadium. How cute is that press box? I could just put it in my pocket.



It legitimately looks like Iowa State's current press box.

I love the history of The Palestra. Just tuck your shirt in tight, Google it, and waste a half hour on this Friday afternoon.



Oh man. Temple vs. La Salle from the Palestra is on TV right now. It looks so deliciously old timey and I love it. They did an old timey streamer tradition after Temple's first basket.

Oh man. Somehow went down the Ivy League basketball arena rabbit hole and came out in the South Dakota crap hole. I already know what part CF3 and Dlew are gonna love the best.

There's a lot to like there:

1. Indoor track between the court and the front row. I mean, LOL Xs 100.
2. Coyote CraZiEs!!!!! Woah those guys sound like they are boNkeRs!
3. Drumset! Now we're rockin'! Boom Boom CLAP! BOOM BOOM CLAP!
4. Mascot means business!

Also SB the Palestra is cool. You are right. I like how the banners have triangles at the bottom and I also like the guy with the Chili's shirt. How do you get to sit up in that Crow's Nest thing at center court? That would be an awesome place to have a party.

5. I like the movie theater velvet rope thingy on the track. NO ONE WILL RUN THE TRACK BECAUSE WE ARE ALL HERE TO GET cRaZY!!!\
6. The CoyOTe CraZiES!!! are mostly visiting fans. :frown:
7. Two banners against a black curtain, lit up by a bunch of weird dangly lights.
8. So they just set up their stands in some kind of convention center, right?

Seems like it. Also I think they might be overcharging for their courtside seats based on the attendance

feel this is as good of time as any to bump this. look at how much wtf our cats have to deal with tonight.

Someone do the Beach's Pyramid....

Unbelievably weird arena. Went there in 2001 and snapped some pics on a box camera before the digital age. The bleachers are, like, mechanized to float to the ceiling or something. Wish I had 700 original SB pics to choose from but you'll just have to deal with these from the internet.



RIGHT NEAR DA BEACH.........BOI-EEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!  (Lordha'mercy.)

You know what's really odd? SB will be driving through Memphis this weekend and will probably stop at the OTHER pyramid-shaped arena to check it out. Wut.

Looks pretty much just like the Hutch JC Sports Arena. Woof.

Thank you for this. Had not become familiar with the Hutchinson Sports Arena until your post. Just googled it. 7,500 for li'l ol' Hutch? Pretty great. And just as an FYI those two arenas are not all that similar other than that they both apparently are elite. Guys, how elite does this place look? Wow! Thanks for introducing me to this, Harry Doyle. Buds.

I think we may have talked about this before, but good Lord, Villanova. You have the weirdest arena in sports.
