The popularity of the Washington Capitals brought on an interesting situation earlier this week.
The Washington Mystics were slated to play at home Thursday night and fans wanting to attend the game were buying tickets.
But when it appeared obvious there would be a watch party at Capital One Arena, some fans of the Mystics were selling their tickets to Capitals fans for the watch party, confirmed an employee of Monumental Sports.
So Monumental Sports switched the start of the Mystics game to 4 p.m. Thursday with the four-time defending champion Minnesota Lynx.
