Former first lady Hillary Clinton made a surprise appearance at Monday’s WNBA game between the New York Liberty and the Seattle Storm, having all eyes glued on her.
Clinton seated next to Liberty owner Clara Tsai in some courtside seats during the match, chatting with stars like Liberty guard Sabrina Lonescu.
The former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has few homes, but she lives primarily in Chappaqua, New York.
That might be the reason why Clinton’s appearance at Barclay’s Center drew a massive response from the crowd.
As best described by podcaster Jackie Powell, commenting, “Hillary Clinton is in the house and got an ovation.
“I missed it but she got to chat with the Liberty’s big three in Sbrina Lonescu, Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones in addition to head coach Chris Demarco.”
The moment Ellie the Elephant (Liberty’s mascot) grooved with her legs on court during the halftime performance at Barclays Center, it sent the internet into a frenzy.
The New York Liberty won the game by securing a 95-83 win on the night at Barclay’s Center, moving them to seventh place in the overall season standings, while the Storm are still struck in 15th.
