Multiple WNBA Games Disrupted by Fan-Thrown Sex Toys

A disturbing trend has emerged in recent WNBA games where green dildos are being thrown onto the court, causing game interruptions and safety concerns among players. This trend has been linked to a group of crypto enthusiasts who admitted to orchestrating the dildo tosses as a stunt to promote their meme coin, as revealed in messages from a Telegram group. The incidents have occurred at multiple games across different cities, including Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York, with one fan facing charges for assault and disorderly conduct after a dildo hit an individual during a Phoenix Mercury game. Despite warnings and an arrest, fans have continued throwing the sex toys, and a crypto-based betting platform is now offering wagers on future dildo tosses, with some bettors profiting significantly. WNBA players like Sophie Cunningham have publicly expressed their frustration and concern about the safety risks posed by these actions. The ongoing dildo-throwing phenomenon highlights a broader issue of disrespect and harassment faced by the league, with some commentators applauding the disruption while many others condemn it.
