Hey there, fellow sports enthusiasts It’s your girl Mia Johnson-Carter from Miami, and I’m here to share some incredible news about the world of women’s sports. As a young tennis player, I’m always excited to see the growth and achievements in other sports, especially when it comes to women’s teams making history.
Recently, the Las Vegas Aces made headlines by becoming the first team in WNBA history to sell out their season tickets for back-to-back seasons. This achievement is nothing short of amazing, especially considering the challenges many teams face in terms of attendance and ticket sales.
The Aces have been making waves in the WNBA with their impressive attendance records. Last season, they became the first team to sell out all of their regular season home games, a feat that speaks volumes about their dedicated fanbase. This season, they’ve taken it a step further by completely selling out their 2025 season ticket memberships, marking a significant milestone in WNBA history.
One of the key factors contributing to this success is undoubtedly A’ja Wilson, who has been a dominant force in the league this season. Her leadership and prowess on the court have not only drawn attention but also inspired fans to invest in the team. As Wilson herself mentioned in an interview with SB Nation, “People are putting their money where their mouth is and investing in us… It’s just the real people, the real investors, the real people that want to see us grow — they’re putting their money where their mouth is.”
Another interesting aspect is how Las Vegas’s smaller arena, Michelob ULTRA Arena, which seats 12,000, plays a role in these sell-outs. Unlike larger arenas that house NBA teams and can seat up to 20,000 fans, the intimate setting of the Aces’ home venue likely enhances the fan experience and encourages more people to attend games.
While the WNBA continues to grow in popularity, it’s heartening to see teams like the Las Vegas Aces setting records and pushing boundaries. The league’s recent growth can be attributed in part to a strong rookie class featuring players like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. These young talents are bringing new energy and excitement to the sport.
