Overview

  • The WNBA now ejects and bans any fan who throws objects, enforcing at least one-year stadium bans and warning of prosecution.
  • The fan who tossed a green sex toy onto the court during Friday’s Golden State ValkyriesChicago Sky game was arrested.
  • Those measures respond to two incidents within a week, when neon green dildos grounded play in games against the Atlanta Dream and Chicago Sky.
  • Players like Elizabeth Williams and Cecilia Zandalasini criticized the stunts as dangerous and disrespectful.
  • The prank trend traces back to social media memes under hashtags such as #ToyToss and #FreeTheValkyrie that mock the Valkyries’ name.
