WNBA Game
On July 10th, we took one of Nick's friends, Yash, as well as Ashley and Christine to a Detroit Shock WNBA game. The Shock beat the Seattle Storm 70-65. Everyone had a great time watching a well played exciting game. There were over 10,000 in attendance in a nationally televised game. The Palace of Auburn Hills was still celebrating the recent NBA championship victory from the Detroit Pistons.
