The audio of the crowd adds to the excitement. Depending on your accuracy, the crowd either cheers wildly or is deadly silent after your shot. The Hall of Fame is an interactive museum filled with photos, artifacts and interactive displays that salute more than 1,000 different high schools. It is considered to be one of the best basketball shrines in the country and it only promises to get bigger and better. And according to executive director Roger Dickinson, the museum isn't only for Hoosiers.
People come from all over the world to see what Indiana basketball is all about.
Visitors don't have to drive far from the Hall of Fame to see just how committed Hoosiers are to the sport. With a capacity of 9,200, the New Castle Chrysler Fieldhouse is the world's largest high school gym. The basketball-theme inn features the jerseys, basketballs and memorabilia from this standout player who led the Indiana University Hoosiers to the 1987 NCAA Championship title. After a nice rest, you'll have plenty of energy to continue your discovery of Indiana basketball hallmarks. Just 13 miles down the road from New Castle is a classic example of an Indiana gymnasium.
