The benches were in their normal spots, but the table was in the balcony directly above where it normally would be on the sideline. When a player wished to check in, he/she would go to the spot directly under the table and pull a small chain. This turned on a light at the scorer's table, indicating a sub was ready to check in so they could hit the horn and notify the officials.

I've worked and played in small gyms, but that was crazy...
I agree that the small gyms are crazy, but I think the chain with light idea is kinda cool.
