Hmmm not sure on where you can go by yourself other than The Hoop, which is down by the airport. We would get 10 or 12 guys and rent a court at t the McDonald's sport complex at olentangy and bethel. That's also where I played summer league softball.

See if you can find a way to get into one of osu's rec centers. Played a lot of hoops at Jesse Owens south and before they tore it down, Larkins Hall. The new main rec center, I think the RPAC, is nice and should always have people playing. Might have to find a student's buckID to borrow for access though.

Also there are some outdoor courts on high street on osu campus that get a lot if action. Don't go there at night though.

That's a ways from where I live.

McDonald's, we actually have a work group that's been playing there, but our league ended this Sunday and for some reason we don't go through the summer, which stinks.

That'd be awesome because I'm sure there'd always be games. Not sure I'd fit in with my ND tattoo, lol, but if I could get in that'd be great. I see them playing quite a bit outside, but at my age I refuse to put my joints through that. I don't have any issues yet, but I don't want them.

Try to get a group of guys to play at mcd's then. Not sure how possible that is. Maybe just show up and see if someone will let you play. I think we'd all pay like $3 or so for a couple hours of court time.

Thanks, I will look into that. I'm going to ask my co-workers if they have a spare Buckeye ID, but they're all well over 30, so I doubt they do, and if they do, it's probably going to be kept for sentinental value at this point.

Maybe I can find a Buckeye ID on craigslists, lol. If you need an active one and have to swipe it, that won't work, though.

If all else fails, I will go shoot around outside and ask around. I hate the idea, but it wounldn't kill me to do it a few times.

Yeah they swipe them at rpac for sure, not sure about the others.
