  • Four trips to Indiana later, and I've finally hit all the spots I wanted for this locations video. Two of those trips were for 35th Anniversary events held at the Hoosier Gym and they were amazing. The first was a screening of the film inside the gym and the second was a jersey retirement and autograph signing by the team and screenwriter.
    Indiana has some really charming little towns and a bunch of historical gyms that were a blast to explore. Great people and they LOVE Hoosiers! I feel like my love for the movie has grown much deeper after going to the events and locations.

    I was 10 when Hoosiers came out and my Dad took me to see it. He was also coaching my basketball team at the time.
    In 2019, my Wife and I were traveling through Indiana and I just so happen to see the sign off the highway for the Hoosiers gym.....we had to stop.
    We had the place to ourselves being shown around by a wonderful gentleman.
    Shot some hoops and soaked up the gym for a couple of hours.
    With my Dad being gone since 2004, it was quite an emotional experience for me.
    Great job, very well done!

    My band played on the stage in the Hoosier Gym around 1979 for a throwback sock-hop when I was a freshman in a neighboring town. I remember storing our cases and dressing in the locker room.
    Looking forward to watching your other videos!

    • @GoingtotheMovies

      That's probably the only thing I'd change on my trip. The anniversary even was awesome, but trying to matchup the shots in the gym with all the people and chairs was tough. I really wish I could've shot some hoops there too. Gonna have to go back!
