Increasing Incidents of Sex Toys Thrown at WNBA Games Spark Controversy and Arrests
Several incidents involving fans throwing sex toys onto the court during WNBA games have surfaced, leading to multiple arrests. An 18-year-old was apprehended for striking a girl and her uncle with a sex toy at a Phoenix Mercury game, while another individual faced charges after throwing a toy during a game between the Indiana Fever and Sparks, prompting concerns from players. WNBA star Sophie Cunningham, who was recently targeted by this trend, expressed her frustration, stating that such actions are disrespectful and could lead to injuries. The league has since implemented a no-bag policy to curb these incidents, and discussions about the implications of this bizarre trend in the sport continue to intensify.
