The 1977-78 Washington Bullets received a traditional celebration with a significant parade and a quick visit to the White House after their championship win.
In contrast, the 2019 Mystics had a minimal celebration, consisting of only one day of festivities and a private ring ceremony held a year later.
Unlike the Bullets' extensive parade attended by over 100,000 fans, the Mystics had no parade, reflecting changing norms around championship celebrations.
The disparity in celebrations between the Bullets and the Mystics raises questions about the evolution of recognition for women's sports compared to men's.
