by CocotheGorilla on 12/3/14Sanford Pentagon - Sioux FallsI sat on one of the ends of the court behind the hoop. My tickets were to the side of the hoop as I didn't want my vision to be blocked. However, others purchased tickets behind the hoop and ended up sitting four seats over so they could see past the hoop leaving my group and myself scrunched into a few spots (not to mention the 85 yr old guy in our row who was supposed to be in the row above). My friends and I just asked an usher to be moved to a different location where there were open seats since there were plenty around and since we didn't really want to ruin the experience of the fans in the wrong spot, including the 85 yr old man (I did talk to them about moving - they did not oblige).
I think the ends of the court are poorly designed. There should be stairs behind the hoop instead of seats. Otherwise this stuff happens. It's great seating for others, just not when you sit behind the hoop. If any renovations are made in the future, changing the stairs location to directly behind the hoop should be one of them.
