President Barack Obama, his daughter Sasha, an unidentified friend and Shelia Johnson, owner of the Washington Mystics, watch as the Tulsa Shock play against the Mystics on August 1, 2010 in Washington, DC
Report: The crowd at the arena roared when the scoreboard showed the president’s arrival. Obama chatted during the game with Mystics owner Ted Leonsis and team president Sheila Johnson …. Obama and his party left the arena a few minutes before the end of the game, which the Mystics won, 87-62 ….. After the game, Mystics player Marissa Coleman told reporters: “The only two times I’ve noticed who was courtside was when LeBron (James) was here, and obviously today. And today’s was even worse. It’s just kind of a surreal thing to look over and see the President of the United States sitting courtside.”
