Sue Bird is hilarious.
Megan Rapinoe and Sue decided to get in on the fun by reenacting the Coldplay kiss cam incident at Tuesday night’s Seattle Storm game against the Minnesota Lynx.
But the couple added their own theatrical twist on the moment.
During a break in the WNBA game, former U.S. women’s national team star Rapinoe was shown on the scoreboard, and Storm fans gave her thunderous applause.
After Rapinoe acknowledged the crowd, the camera cut to Sue Bird, who was cuddling up to Storm mascot Doppler.
As we all saw with former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, both would separate to get away from the camera.
The scorned Rapinoe added to the moment by reacting to the betrayal.

Sue Bird is a WNBA all-time great.
The five-time Olympic gold medalist retired from the WNBA at the end of the 2022 season. In 2023, the Seattle Storm retired Sue Bird’s No. 10 jersey in an emotional ceremony.
After leading perennial college powerhouse UConn to two national titles, Bird was selected No. 1 overall by the Storm in the 2002 draft.
Bird, a legendary point guard known for her exceptional playmaking and leadership, played her entire 21-season WNBA career with the Seattle Storm before retiring after the 2022 season.
Bird retired, averaging 11.7 points and 5.6 assists per game. She led the franchise to all four of its league championships in 2004, 2010, 2018, and 2020 while earning a whopping 13 All-Star selections.
She holds franchise records in career points, assists, steals, made field goals, and made 3-pointers.
The Storm announced this year that a statue honoring Bird will be unveiled outside of Climate Pledge Arena at 10 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 17.
Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.
The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.
The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”
However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.
It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.
Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

WNBA Chooses Not To Investigate Brittney Griner

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.
The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.
Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.
This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
