Since early August 2025, multiple incidents have occurred at Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) games where sex toys, predominantly green dildos, have been thrown onto the courts during live play. These disruptions have forced game pauses and raised safety concerns among players and coaches. A cryptocurrency group promoting a meme coin called Green Dildo Coin has publicly claimed responsibility for orchestrating these acts as a coordinated marketing campaign to increase the coin's value, which has reportedly tripled since the first incident. The WNBA has responded by working with local and federal law enforcement to identify and hold perpetrators accountable, resulting in several arrests. Additionally, all 13 WNBA teams have been mandated to install safety nets around courts to prevent further occurrences, although players have noted that objects can still be thrown over these nets. The incidents have sparked broader discussions about fan behavior, security measures, and the impact of unregulated sports betting markets that allow wagers on whether sex toys will be thrown during games. The controversy has also drawn criticism for its sexist and homophobic implications, with public figures and commentators condemning the acts. The WNBA is considering further measures, including potentially banning fans from games, to protect players and maintain the integrity of the sport.
