There are emergency lights on the floor of the inner court. The inner court is reserved for referees, cheerleaders and teams, with benches for players currently not on the court. On the ceiling are lights to illuminate the court, since the ceiling is closed (unlike in soccer stadiums). Game attendees sit in alternating rows of orange and white seats. The entrance is attached to a hallway that cuts the grounds in two, separating gate 1 from gate 24. Walking through this door, you are led into a hallway that ends in a door marked "FOXES", which is opened by key.
#Foxhole court code#
The code for the keypad is decided by Wymack, who likes to use references to him and Abby in the code (0508 for Coach and Abby's birth months in The Foxhole Court and the last four digits of Abby's phone number in The Raven King) and it changes every week. There are food stalls and souvenir shops between the fence and the stadium, but they are only open during the season.īetween gates 24 and 1 is a door with an electronic keypad: this is the entrance the Foxes use. Gates are placed equidistant down the length of the fence for handling a night crowd, but they are usually chained shut. The stadium is surrounded by barbed wire fence. A giant fox paw is painted on each of the four outer walls. The walls are painted bright white with bright orange trim. The stadium was built to seat sixty-five thousand fans and is situated on the outskirts of campus near utility buildings. The first time Neil visits the Foxhole Court, it is with Kevin and the cousins. Kevin's arrival, however, also gave the Foxes enough money so that they could refurbish the floors and walls, making the court the cleanest it has been since it was built. Kevin and Neil have keys to the stadium (outer door, gear room, court doors). The stadium was vandalized upwards of a dozen times after Kevin signed with the Foxes. Home games are held at the Foxhole Court, and Neil attends additional practice sessions with Kevin (accompanied by Andrew) at night at the court.
