I wouldn't call it a full-sized court, but there is indeed a
basketball rim and backboard in a maintenance room at the top of the
Matterhorn.  It was originally put up (in 1978) as part of an
elaborate pun that you can no doubt figure out yourself (Matterhorn,
"hoops", get it?) but turned out to be so much fun that it hung around
until at least 1984.  Not having worked at the 'Land in a while, I can't
say if it is still there or not.
