Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 4236974, member: 716"] I would think practical basketball capacity would drop a lot more. If you're sitting on an aluminum bench in 321 or 335, it's not much trouble for everyone to rotate their hips and turn their heads toward the court and pretend they're long-range view seats. Same goes for 320 and 336 and most of what's east of midfield. But if everyone's got armrests and is generally oriented straight ahead, those really aren't basketball-compatible seats anymore. They'll sell them, but it'll be a more uncomfortable experience and I imagine less popular. On the other hand, having real seats in the basketball portion of the building should go over well with the NCAA site selection people, who didn't care for the benches. [/QUOTE]
