The Pit — UNM Arena
Albuquerque, NM
About The Pit — UNM Arena
The Pit — officially the WisePies Arena — is one of college basketball's legendary venues, a sunken arena on the University of New Mexico campus whose underground design and extraordinary acoustics create an atmosphere that has rattled visiting teams since 1966 and earned a reputation as one of the game's most hostile environments. The Lobos faithful fill the 15,411-seat arena with a noise amplified by the below-grade bowl that has made The Pit consistently rank among college basketball's most intimidating venues. Attending a Mountain West Conference game here on a sold-out Thursday night is a genuinely unforgettable basketball experience.
Located in Albuquerque.
