I was sitting with one of my little boys having some lunch when I noticed this little box up in the rafters.

I imagine it&#8217;s been a long time since anyone ever called a game from this press box, but it&#8217;s probably more hassle than it&#8217;s worth to try to dismantle it and take it down. As a result it remains up above the gymnasium, just in case someone ever needs to get a birds-eye view of the haps down on the basketball floor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of all the time I&#8217;ve spent in various parts of the World War Memorial Building, I don&#8217;t recall ever taking notice of this interesting feature tucked up in near the ceiling over the edge of the basketball court.
