I truly don’t know but tonight is or was a lot different for those needing crayons

[EBFVOL]

Ok is Football TN Orange different from Basketball TN Orange?

Would you like to try again in English?

Nah they in the Bahamas…….it’s like the atmospheric pressure something like that near the equata…………..skews yo vision.

Check Map. Bahamas off east coast of Fort Lauderdale. No where near Equator.

Wait are you asking if the basketball uniforms are a different shade of orange? Because if so, I have the same question. The orange looked too dark.

 

[JoAllan]

Sweat…..being wet might make the basketball Jersey look a bit different, maybe some jankey
Streaming or something.

 

[kiddiedoc]

It was the lighting in that arena

Yep they seem wrong..

It’s WAY closer than my house.

The closer to the equata you get the more that barometric pressure messes with our eyes.

Like once you get to Columbia yellow looks like bright red……….something like that.

I think you're right. Because the orange on the home uniforms looked weird but I don't remember them looking weird in the previous 3 games.

No one listens……..it’s the equata

 

[kiddiedoc]

Maybe sunburns?

 

[JoAllan]

Maybe sunburns?

holy crap…….that’s probably it.

Maybe not even close enough to the equata to make the uniforms look all red.

I bet someone washed those uni’s and hang them out in that bright hot sun to dry……..they gots all sunburned.

Makes perfect sense.

Any thread that references the equator is quality. It's not your Tropic of Capricorn, I'll give you that. But the ol' equator is still a crowd pleaser.

It was the lighting. Even the folks that put on the tournament admit the lighting is dimmer than normal inside Imperial.

The ceiling also makes a difference in lighting. The ceiling at Imperial is 26 feet. The ceiling at TBA is 120 feet. The speakers that hang below the center scoreboard are 60 feet above the court.

 

[JoAllan]

May very well be the lighting

However if you look at the cameras from at the goals everything looks normal.

Look at the main camera and BAM.

 

[amaralfan1]

A lot of articles talk about the lighting situation. My guess is the broadcast cameras are in the unlit parts of the room and the plus lights are messing with how cameras pick up our shade of orange. The cameras behind the backboard are in the well lit area of the room.

Once you get down to Colombia, there's a white powder down there that makes ALL colors bright...

I assume you are joking. . .

Having worked in Libreville, Gabon and in Thailand for years, I can assure you that you are FOS on this.

BC powders my dad used to take them all the time for headaches.

“Equata”

Come on man

But you were there in person…….not seeing it on TV “from there.” All that Equata pressure skews colors in like the TV frequencies jumbles everything up.

It looked too Red.

 

[DonDiego]

[Zues1]

Heck I just weary orange tinted glasses.
Everything looks great.

All I saw was TN "lighting" up Kansas
