Driving to the hole in Extra Place

Since discovering the basketball hoop in Extra Place a few weeks ago...


...we've wondered who has been playing here. The gang from John Varvatos taking on Extra Place newcomers Daniel Boulud?

Maybe! Though on this day, here's who we saw playing... Kids!

    The gang from John Varvatos vs Boulud's crew? Ugh. Look for some hard defense and scrapping under the boards. Those guys play rough.

    Those kids look like they are having fun. This will lead to more people coming to the neighborhood thus leading to more people having fun. I say pull the hoop down now!

    Anybody else think that hoop looks more like 15 feet tall? Must be a low-scoring affair...

    @ Todd

    True... not quite regulation! Hope these guys aren't playing any organized ball — their field goal percentage will be awfully low.
