Onward Investigates: What’s This Random Basketball Hoop Next To The THON Raffle

Sitting outside Portal 4 tucked away next to the THON raffle is this really random basketball hoop.

Since it’s pretty much attached to the THON raffle booth, you might assume that it’s part of it. Maybe it’s some type of boardwalk game to go with the raffle, which wouldn’t be a bad idea.
