I'm a hockey fan so if you say to me you're in 'the dub' (the w) I assume you play in the WHL

Michigan J woulda had an easier time getting in that club

Representatives from a W Hotel probably has more pull.

u/rpgguy_1o1 Montreal Canadiens Jul 21 '25

Hey, some of the best defensemen in the NHL came from the W

I couldn’t pick any WNBA players out of a lineup, other than Clark, Reese, Griner, and Bueckers.

VIP is like influencer. You don't decide you're it. We'll let you know.

I looked up the 25 greatest players in WNBA history.

  • I was only familiar with 5 of the names
  • I only recognized 4 faces out of those 5 names
  • I only knew what city one of those 5 names played for

Every player in the WNBA should be writing hand-written letters to Caitlin Clark thanking her for raising the league's profile.

The majority of the nation would not recognize 99% of athletes in street clothes.

u/regardlessABC123 Jul 21 '25

The majority of the nation would not recognize 99% of these players in their dub uniforms.

u/butterzzzy Jul 21 '25

Lol, they are trying to act like they are as well known as Steph Curry and LeBron. It's too funny.

I watch the W sometimes. Just heard of this lady today though. Her reputation does not precede her apparently.

u/JohnCenaJunior Jul 21 '25

Then having to use the "im a human being" card when something bad happens or just avoiding fans and papz

u/pgsz Jul 21 '25

I always say this shit when they put the name of some “celebrity” on the screen in a commercial. Sorry, Kai Cenat, you really aren’t that famous.

u/rodpretzl Jul 21 '25

Yeah - you have to pay for tables at clubs that are worth getting into.

u/queens_getthemoney Jul 21 '25

the people in the video are quite literally the center of wnba culture right now, this is a failure on the party organizers

u/TheShowerDrainSniper Jul 21 '25

If you work at a bar and you know a huge event is coming to town then you should be prepared for that. These employees are fucking stupid and if I was managing them I'd be furious.

u/bobtheframer Jul 21 '25

Huge event... it's the wnba not unlike a high school wrestling tournament or something.
