Someone could do the same thing for HS football stadiums, which would most likely be centered in Texas. Just think of how many college arenas are smaller than this, including the Taj Mahal of D2 basketball, the Taylor Center, which holds about 4800.

Here's some information about Chinle. It looks like Netflix has added a full-length documentary back in August, so I know what I'll be watching tonight.
This is the video I was referencing, from MaxPreps. It does go into some detail about the arena.

Here's another video from YouTube:

The trailer for the documentary:

Chinle proper has 4,500 residents, and the high school enrollment is 1,250. They sit on the edge of a massive Navajo reservation, which is probably why their arena is so large, granted not many people have easy access to it.
Here's a photo of their arena:
EDIT: I did some more reading. They sit near the Navajo Nation reservation - it's the largest in terms of land in the United States. The reservation does house something like 350,000 people, but given how big the area is, that translates to about 13 people per square mile. To put that into perspective, metro Phoenix occupies slightly larger than half of the total square miles, but has a population density of ~4,900 per square mile.Last edited by SW_Mustang; 09-17-2019, 12:00 PM.

Sorry for the spam - I love looking at these types of things, especially for non-pro/D1 facilities.
Here's the largest, Lloyd E Scott Gymnasium in Seymour, Indiana
Here's an article from Stadium Journey - they typically don't cover high schools if I am correct:
