A few weeks earlier, I had written that although Wilt Chamberlain claimed to have slept with 20,000 women in his lifetime, I had already slept with 7,138 women in a single night: we were all snoring in the stands during a WNBA game.

It was a terrible retort, and I couldn’t wait to change the subject, but Lobo wouldn’t let go. “We have 15,000 fans in Madison Square Garden,” she said.

“How many women’s games have you attended, anyway?” Ashamed, I admitted that I had never attended a women’s basketball game before ridiculing it in a national magazine. So she invited me to one of her New York Liberty games, I accepted, and 23 months later we were married.
