INDIANA IS HOME TO 9 OF THE 10 LARGEST HIGH SCHOOL GYMS IN THE U.S.

Chrysler High School in New Castle, Indiana is home to the largest high school basketball gymnasium in the world. The Fieldhouse has four concession stands, a 1/7-mile concourse running track, a 6-acre parking lot and enough room to hold half the town’s population. NOTABLE QUOTES: Steve Alford; “I played in at least 12 games in The Fieldhouse where the crowd was bigger than 10,000. That’s more fans in one game than most high school players see in their entire career”.
