At first I thought it was an optical illusion of some sort, but the benches at Ford Field, where the Midwest Regional semifinals are being played, are below court level. The court is raised and the benches look like an orchestra pit. Very strange.
I can't wait for the first player to chase a ball out of bounds and go diving into the 12th row.

Apparently this is what they do when football stadiums host basketball games. The same thing's going on with the Stanford-Texas game at Reliant Stadium in Houston. I wonder what purpose it serves to have the benches below the court. Maybe so the players can duck for cover if fans start throwing stuff?
