Did a good GV game last night and as we are lining up for free throws a Dad in the stands starts yelling, "Watch #44, she is...with a list of about 10 things...ending with watch her ref she's dirty."
The captain, and by far and away the best player on the floor, was about to shoot the FT and she looked toward the Dad, rolled her eyes, made eye contact with me and saw I was smiling and she started laughing.
Sometimes you get those little moments, and this game was full of them, where we get to be human and not just a striped shirt.
We had great rapport with the coaches and players.
We had a baby brother, about 3 years old, dancing during every timeout, giving us a chance to connect with some fans about something outside the game.
