The WNBA is currently drawing significant attention, and this visibility has attracted notable figures like Hillary Clinton. The former first lady attended a game featuring the New York Liberty against the Seattle Storm on Monday. Clinton, known for various high-profile roles and her 2016 presidential campaign, appeared more captivated by the entertainment off the court.
Seated next to team owner Clara Tsai, Clinton held conversations with Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu among others. However, the Liberty’s mascot, Ellie the Elephant, seemed to capture the spotlight. Ellie’s antics on the court proved to be a significant highlight, bringing joy to attendees, including Clinton.
The mascot’s performance was reminiscent of Clinton’s previous expressions of delight, such as her reaction to falling balloons at the 2016 Democratic National Convention. Clinton’s evident enjoyment at such events highlights her appreciation for unexpected and humorous performances.
Overall, the evening’s entertainment, led by Ellie, perhaps rivaled traditional shows like Broadway performances in terms of enjoyment.
