By the Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia — Not everyone was happy in the biggest crowd to watch a basketball game in Australia.

— Not everyone was happy in the biggest crowd to watch a basketball game in Australia.

The roof at Marvel Stadium was closed and a raised court was placed in the middle of the field surrounded by hundreds of white chairs, more than 20 rows deep, for fans who paid for floor seating. Before the game, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission said it had already received hundreds of complaints from ticketholders who claimed to have been misled about which players that were involved and wanted refunds.

“We can well understand that if something is advertised with certain elite players … if you don’t have the key players that could well significantly affect whether you’re still interested in attending.”
