One was cranked all of the way up and out of the way. The other was stationary and was hanging down in its regular position and clearly could be in the way of the play. Never seen one goal up and one down before. Have you?
In northern Michigan we see it all the time. I've even had tiny gyms with the cables attached to the walls and the ceiling no more than 20 feet high. I've had flags hanging over nets, dangling lights, and even balconies hanging over playing areas. The strangest gym however was the one that 1/2 dead bees kept dropping from the ceiling during play.
