LEXINGTON, Ky. — "I see this basically as the court for the future, 100 percent."
That "court for the future" arrived in Lexington this week, as the University of Kentucky becomes the first collegiate partner of ASB GlassFloor.
The company brought its Lumi-Flex court to Rupp Arena for this year's rendition of the annual tipoff to basketball season, Big Blue Madness. The world's first full-LED court display made of glass will be yet another change BBN notices this Friday night.
We got a preview of the new floor being installed at Rupp Arena in time for Big Blue Madness 👀
