Seats are a mile from the court.
One concession stand open a mile from the seats.
One door open to get into the place.
It would be a great place for a tractor pull or a rodeo, not HS Basketball.

Those kinds of places are horrible for small school playoffs. They are meant to be played on a building with great atmosphere and loud as ever!!!!
