This is my favorite story I have heard about in a long time. 99% of you probably don’t know this, but the WNBA apparently had their (World?) Championship recently, and the Phoenix Mercury won. Last week, when it came time to celebrate, instead of a grand parade with players squirting super soakers at fans and players waving towels, the Mercury got a little event at a pavilion outside of the US Airways Center.

Hmmm, no parade? I’m no WNBA fan by any means, but a championship at any level is impressive, so what gives? Well apparently the streets were too clogged because of a fourth place little league baseball team’s celebration. They had no trophies to bring back, but they had a parade with firetrucks, police escorts, politician speakers, and everything else that comes with a championship parade.

Once again, this is another step back for the WNBA. At least my Miami Sol got out early to save themselves from embarrassment.
