Talk about making your parents proud.
The Las Vegas Aces halftime entertainment during Saturday’s game against Minnesota Lynx was a baby race. Ten babies lined up on one end of the court, parents coaxing them to crawl to the other end. While the Lynx crushed the Aces by 53 points, the real winner on Saturday was the baby who stood up and took her first steps at the break.
Halfway across the court, with a sizeable lead in tow, the baby girl got to her knees, then her feet and started cruising to her mom — waiting at the other end of the basketball court. The winner of the race, and the crowd’s hearts, the baby received a huge hug from mom as she reached the finish line victorious.
The baby’s dad also get in the act, toting to the trophy carrying winner.
‘She just started running’ he said, proudly. ‘I was not expecting that.’
