President Obama Calls To Congratulate Minnesota Lynx
Champagne, hardware and a Prince concert aren’t the only perks of winning the WNBA championship. It turns out you even get a call from President Barack Obama.
“Today, President Obama called Minnesota Lynx Head Coach Cheryl Reeve,” the White House said in a statement, “to congratulate her and the Lynx on their victory in the Women’s National Basketball Association Finals. The President recognized the team’s talented players and noted that this win was the culmination of an impressive season. The President said he looks forward to the team’s visit to the White House to congratulate the players in person.”
Our WNBA Champions received a special call this morning. Thanks for the love, @POTUS! #RoarLikeAChampionhttps://t.co/uAcCarhjlA
