Las Vegas Aces Sold Out All Of Their Games, Make History

Caitlin Clark who? Angel Reese what? While the sports world is a buzz over the new starlets of the WNBA, the champs reign supreme. Today, the Las Vegas Aces sold out their final game, and with that have done something no other team in the league has ever done.

Being back-to-back champions really brings excitement around a franchise. The Las Vegas Aces are a powerhouse that are packing the Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay night after night. So much so, that the Las Vegas Aces sold out season tickets earlier this year, another WNBA first.

Up until just recently, it all came down to one game: a game against Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky at T-Mobile Arena. The Aces decided to take a couple high profile dates with two of the biggest new stars in the game on the opposing team. It turns out the bet paid off.

Every single regular season game has sold out, a first for a WNBA franchise. If you want to go to any of these games, chances are you'll be paying top dollar in the secondary market.

Being back to back champs brings the heat, and it appears as though the Las Vegas Aces have better competition than ever. The Aces are just above .500 at a 7-6 record for the season so far, which is 5th out of 12 in the league.

A'ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum, Chelsea Gray and the rest of the ladies have their work cut out for them this season. But we wouldn't count them out. The season is still young (with 40 games this season, the most of any WNBA season) and these women do not quit.

But one thing is for sure. The stands are going to be jammed with fans who are looking for the three-peat.

You'll never forget your first.

The Las Vegas Aces won game 4 in the WNBA Finals on Sunday night in Connecticut, taking with them the WNBA Championship and Las Vegas' very first major league sports title. With the honor, comes the party! A short parade followed by a massive party in front of the Bellagio fountains.

Fans were rushing from (or playing hooky from) work to make it in time for the event, flocking to the area mostly from the Caesars Palace parking lot. In front of Caesars, a staging area for the parade with Raiderettes, classic cars, members of the Boys & Girls Club and Broadway In The Hood gearing up to take the route. Then, a horn was blasting out of nowhere. Travelling north on Las Vegas Boulevard, a chartered bus with the Las Vegas Aces was barreling down the street! The parade was coming soon!

Aces staff went up and down the parade route handing out signs, pom-poms, rally towels and more.

At 5:30 sharp, the parade began. Down the street came community members holding "CHAMPS" in balloon lettering. Motorcycle cops and the Nevada State Police's "Aces" cruisers, local community organizations and more.

Then, the "Big Bus" double-decker buses rolled through. A'ja Wilson, like Rose in Titanic planted at the front of the first bus with the WNBA Championship in her hand and a grin you couldn't wipe off if you tried. Aces owner Mark Davis standing close by, almost undetectable wearing a hat. Finals MVP Chelsea Gray holding her MVP trophy precariously off the side of the bus.

They headed towards the stage in front of the Bellagio with thousands in attendance awaiting them. So many that they actually closed the other side of Las Vegas Boulevard - something officials weren't expecting to do.

The famed Las Vegas Strip, playground to tourists from around the world, was for one rare moment taken over by locals. Local organizations, local fans, our local team. It was a special day! Congrats Aces! Here's to next year!
