hoop-skirt 

A huge broad funnel-shaped hopper-like device that's designed to fit down over-top of a basketball hoop, and to catch virtually all the shots so that they'll go through the hoop.
A standard hoop-skirt is made from heavy canvas or other thick easily-visible material, and is just a novelty/gag item that's intended to merely cause observers to snicker and roll their eyes as they watch the players score a hoop almost every time (similar to when a backyard jokester uses lengths of stove-pipe for guiding the ball when playing croquet). "Specialty" or "stealth" models of hoop-skirt are available, too, though --- they are made from ultra-transparent and non-reflective material in order to be virtually undetectable, and can be used to help "level the playing field" during actual team-competition games; they allow the less-capable/practiced side to increase their chances of beating --- or at least scoring a lot closer to --- their better-skilled opponents.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
