Everyone associated with the Carrier Classic keeps repeating how the game is for the troops. Well, there's lots of troops based on land with good gyms with folding bleacher seats. UCONN and MSU just played in one. The Maui games have a similar facility.

I've been in armed forces gyms in Korea, Japan, Germany, and several places in the US. If this event is "for the troops" then stop trying to convert a ship into a basketball court and use facilities that were designed for that purpose.

Really...trying to reinvent the wheel is a waste of time.
