WNBA Fans LOSE IT Over Jen Sey's XX-XY Shirt | The Riley Gaines Show
Jen Sey joins Riley Gaines to share her account of being harassed by fans at a WNBA game while wearing an XX-XY Athletics shirt. She describes the confrontation, the response from security, and why she says she needed an escort out of the arena.
The former Levi's executive also weighs in on two major WNBA controversies: the league's response to Congress about Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White's eligibility, and players leaving the court during the national anthem at the WNBA Finals. On this episode of The Riley Gaines Show, Riley and Jen discuss WNBA fan conduct, fairness in women's sports, player eligibility, and whether political disagreements are affecting the experience of women's basketball fans. Jen recounts what happened after she and her friends appeared on the arena's Jumbotron wearing XX-XY Athletics shirts. She says other spectators shouted insults and threats, security questioned her group, and the confrontation continued throughout the game. She also explains the emotional aftermath and why she plans to continue supporting women's sporting events. Riley and Jen also examine the WNBA's response to congressional lawmakers concerning Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White. According to OutKick's October 20 report, Commissioner Cathy Engelbert told lawmakers that both former NBA players were ineligible because they are men. The response did not provide the broader definition of women's eligibility that lawmakers requested.
