A lot of crazy things have happened during a basketball game, but players, fans, and even the announcer were left speechless after an unexpected rubbery guest boinged across the court during a crucial moment in last night’s WNBA Golden State Valkyries v Atlanta Dream match.
The score was 75-75 with just a minute left to play when there was a flash of lime green from the crowd, and play was stopped. The announcers were confused as to what was going on, saying “something flies onto the court from the crowd…”, as fans and officials blocked the view of the object. Then, in what may well be the end of some poor camera operator’s career, a close-up was aired on TV.
