GIF crazy

To be fair, I might be getting a bit too happy posting these but it is WAY too much fun to see people's reaction. Especially with pushing our #LoydROY campaign. Storm guard Jewell Loyd should be Rookie of the Year and it shouldn't be a debate.

So after she got to 16 points last night, I thought this was appropriate.

Then there was this Home Alone themed back-and-forth with the Tulsa Shock. Because we ended up losing, their final comeback was fitting and didn't need a response. There was one two games ago with the Washington Mystics and that one channeled Ferris Bueller.

The bottom line is, while they have entertained me, these gifs have entertained our fan base and that is evident from the tweeted responses, retweets, and favorites on the game posts. This was not the case for many of our posts prior to these images.

It was an experiment with a function we already have and it has yielded great results.
