In Kingstown Indiana, about an hour from Indianapolis, Hamburgers cost $1.50, haircuts at the local barber cost $8 (we each got one (yikes)) and the Hoosiers court is the main attraction.

For those who don’t know, Hoosiers was a movie about a small-town basketball team which makes it to the nationals. The filmmakers wanted to find a court which epitomizes hometown courts from Anywhere USA. Hoosiers court, built in 1911, is a prime example of exactly this and that’s why we’re here.

We spent a day in the sleepy town, shooting this famous court. It's the quintessential all-American small-town location. A timless little slice of history.

The part i'll always remember about being there is how it felt like a teleport to a simpler more innocent time. Where highschool basketball games were the main event, maybe next to the Apollo moon trip or Vietnam or a '57 Chevy.

As much a monument to times past as anything else.
