If you have a twin and they love the WNBA it's likely that they are a fan. Aubrey and Christal are WNBA fans, and so are Kevin and Lorri. Here's a look at what a WNBA enthusiast looks like. Next, learn what you can do for your twins to become WNBA fans.
Lorri Gyenes is a WNBA fan
Lorri Gyenes of the Chicago Sky is no strangers to the game. She has been an avid fan of the league from its inception and is currently a season ticket holder. Judy Gertz, also a Chicago Sky Season ticket holder, is also her spouse. The two of them first got together in Chicago back in 2013.
WNBA fans connect with other fans by going beyond their favorite players and teams. It is easy for WNBA fans to form a community through organizing events that celebrate the game. Even the smallest gatherings can bring together people who are not necessarily connected to the league. This type of fan community can prove to be a valuable resource to the league and help it grow its audience. How does one build a fan base?
Aubrey loves the WNBA
Aubrey DeMarco became a lesbian at the age of 35. She moved to New York City later and attended a Liberty match with her friends. During a timeout she witnessed a group gay fans giggling and kissing at the game. They were protesting against the WNBA's indifference to its queer fans. This was a big turning point for the WNBA and their queer fanbase.
Grey grew-up supporting the WNBA despite having a queer identity. She was even a member of the Texas A&M University Pep Band, where her father played football. She still watches a number of teams and remembers the 'We Got Next’ commercials. She is particularly excited by the visibility of WNBA stars, who often don't get seen on television. Her fandom has expanded since then.
Christal and Christia have identical twins
DeWanna Bonner (also known as Christal) and Christal, also basketball fans, are twins. The Indiana Fever forward ranks 10th in WNBA history for highest scoring player. They have become role models for LGBT people even though they didn't set out to be. In the NBA, both twins have become role models for other women who want to make a name for themselves.
Kevin is a WNBA fan
When asked who is the best player of the league, the usual response is "I am a WNBA fan." The WNBA has been the most loved professional basketball league in all of the world for a long time, and it's not hard to see why. The WNBA is not the most popular league in basketball. They rarely win the most prestigious awards such as Most Valuable Player. This is where you come in. You don't have to be a WNBA snob, there are many ways you can make a WNBA season worthwhile.
Consider first the demographics for WNBA players. The younger generation has grown up watching women's college ball on TV. Leslie's USC days may not be well-known to the post Lobo generation. Instead, their heroes are Taurasi, Holdsclaw, and Catchings. High school seniors are not uncommon to have been raised during the Swoopes era of Texas Tech or to have seen Chamique Holdsclaw play in Tennessee's 20+ games.
