A Bay Area basketball fan describes the contrast between Valkyries (WNBA) and Warriors (NBA) crowd.
From Reddit:
Went to my first ever warriors game at chase yesterday. I'd heard it was quieter than the Oakland days, but I didn't realize how quiet - the PA system doesn't lead any cheers on offense (the crowd is sooooo quiet) and it leads a Defense cheer but no one really does it (except a few minutes in the 3rd when Dray picked up a T).
No one claps for the random stuff that happens during timeouts, etc. I yelled Defense in the first few plays and a woman turned around and gave me a Look 😭
All this to say....I miss the Ballhalla joy. Next season can't come soon enough!
