Obsessed with dildos in the WNBA: "Showing signs of sheer idiocy"
In an unexpected turn of events, a cryptocurrency enthusiast group has been accused of orchestrating disruptions at WNBA games, involving the use of green dildos. The group, promoting a meme coin called the "Green Dildo Coin," launched the digital investment a day before the disruptions began.
The group's spokesperson, speaking anonymously, justified the stunts as opportunistic marketing aimed at capitalizing on the existing "controversy" around the WNBA. The aim, according to the spokesperson, was to reclaim the creative and community spirit of crypto and to "make memes funny again," denying any dislike towards women’s sports.
The WNBA players and fans found these disruptions disrespectful and concerning, especially as the league grows significantly in popularity and financial investment. Leonie Fiebich, a player for the New York Liberty in the WNBA, expressed her concerns, stating that such acts undermine the athletes' accomplishments and dignity.
Two men have been arrested for allegedly throwing dildos onto WNBA courts in Georgia and Arizona. If convicted, they face fines or jail time for charges including disorderly conduct, trespassing, public indecency, and indecent exposure. The group behind the "Green Dildo Coin" has distanced itself from the arrested men, stating they are not connected to the group.
The "Green Dildo Coin" is a digital investment based on an internet meme related to dildos. Meme-Coins, such as this one, combine pop culture with digital investments, often based on humorous images or videos that resonate with the public.
The WNBA has condemned the incidents and threatened a one-year ban from arenas for those responsible. Despite the disruptions, Leonie Fiebich believes that the league's reputation will not be significantly harmed. The focus of the group's actions, it seems, is to generate attention, not to harm the reputation of the WNBA or women’s sports.
One such incident occurred at an arena where the Los Angeles Lakers also play their home games, highlighting the far-reaching impact of these stunts. As the WNBA continues to grow, it is hoped that such disruptions will not deter fans or players, and that the focus will remain on the sport and the incredible achievements of its athletes.
The "Green Dildo Coin," a digital investment based on an internet meme related to dildos, has been associated with disruptions at WNBA games, despite the group claiming no connection to the arrests. These disruptions are causing concern among WNBA players and fans, with Leone Fiebich, a player for the New York Liberty, expressing her disappointment. The WNBA, however, remains focused on the sport and the achievements of its athletes, hoping that such incidents will not deter fans or players. These stunts, according to the spokesperson of the "Green Dildo Coin" group, are aimed at reclaiming the creative and community spirit of crypto and making memes funny again, not to harm the reputation of the WNBA or women’s sports.
