Who says Indianapolis doesn't have IVs?

This season, the Indiana Pacers will host NBA All-Star Weekend. The city of Indianapolis isn't known for its glitz and dash, but they're welcoming basketball fans in true Swagoo style.

A full-length basketball court has been installed in the middle of the Indianapolis International Airport so that travelers visiting the city for All-Star Weekend can enjoy a little exercise before departing to Indy (and catching a flight en route). It has been. After the festival is over, I go home. ) And it's also cool because the design of the airport court is very similar to what the players will use in February.

Check out this bad guy.

Interestingly, this whole thing reminds me of the movie “Soul Plane.” Because this plane's terminal (interestingly named Terminal Malcolm X) had a basketball court.

And damn, look…it's real now. (lol)

Personally, I'm always excited for NBA All-Star Weekend because of the hype that goes on beforehand (I'm definitely guilty of this), but like every year, the event… I always feel deflated as I go along. Therefore, the balloon will burst in boring situations. The ass game they give us on Sunday night. After the slam dunk contest, my metaphorical balloon is barely hanging.

But if you were in the NBA, what the heck would you do? (Related: Golden State Warriors' Draymond Green officially returns on MLK Day with hilarious irony: Report)

At first glance, have your local airport set up a basketball court.
