This fall the Armed Forces Classic was held on Ramstein AB in one of its massive hangers. The court and bleachers were all set-up by volunteers as well as the Sports Center stage that was set-up a 1/4 mile away in a second hanger on Ramstein.
The game was played at midnight local time with UCONN vs. Michigan State. I'm not much of a basketball follower but being at the game was Awesome. I spent a few hours at Sports Center, and if people were watching they would be able to see us in the crowd behind the sports casters. I have a few pictures below I took of the stage from where I sat and the front of the stage.

The game started promptly at midnight, this game was pretty interesting as UCONN had a brand new coach and the UCONN team had three native German's playing on the team. One team member had individuals he knew form his home in Germany at the game!! Had the choice of pretty much any seat we wanted.

In the picture above, it is really hard to tell but it is an Airplane hanger on Ramstein.
Despite my interest in Basketball, having the opportunity to see this game here on Ramstein was Awesome!!
