Do you like college basketball? Do you like staring at butts? Well ESPN has a treat for you.

Isn’t it great how you can’t really see what’s going on, but you can see the player’s butts? Doesn’t that seem super useful with regards to watching a high level college basketball game? Here, check out this killer angle:
So much action. pic.twitter.com/aiIfhdOt1k

What’s going on in the game, you might ask? No idea. Is there a butt in the frame? Yup!
OK, honestly this is utter garbage and people are really upset about it.
@JimMWeber the person that thought "floor seats" was a good idea should be put on probation immediately @espn #worstideaever

@JimMWeber passing it off as a novelty. In truth, they couldn't afford the expense of cameras and cameramen.

Times are tough, yo.
I already hate these sideline camera angles. They make the game harder to see. Boo on @espn

Who the HELL thought broadcasting this Michigan-OSU game from the scorer's table was a good idea?

Wonder what the entire city of Columbus has to say about this.
'garbage' is now trending in #Columbus https://t.co/EsqXXTwFIq

Probably the best part is the ref frequently getting in the way. Makes the game fun because you have no idea what’s going on, you just see the score changing. It’s like playing Monopoly with your family when you’re super drunk and trying to pretend you aren’t.
Every jump shot is like its own mini trivia game: Did this Zak Irvin shot go in? pic.twitter.com/P25SH2m7Ta

At least they thought things through!
Believe it or not, I just ran into one of ESPN camerawomen in the bathroom. She said that she can't pan without hitting anyone...
