Event security never seen such a mass exodus after the&nbsp;7:30&nbsp;game, maybe everybody heard about&nbsp;the&nbsp;$5 meatball subs at the bar. Fans were rushing to the exits at tipoff careful not to get stuck for this preseason WNBA matchup. Worm even scheduled a work meeting at the bar just to make sure he accidently didn\u2019t get stuck. About halfway through the game, one of the stat guys even left because he had enough. Luckily Dave wasn\u2019t doing anything so he filled in&#8211; even though Pauly P was up by 40 at halftime, they still didn\u2019t let Dave play. Somebody needs to tell Danny that even though the McRib is back, games are not cancelled. With one week remaining, the perfect season continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For anybody that was stuck at the scorer\u2019s table last night&nbsp;from 8:31&nbsp;on, please see the below PSA<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you need to talk, the 988 Lifeline is here.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-background\">At the 988 Suicide &amp; Crisis Lifeline, we understand that life&#8217;s challenges can sometimes be difficult.
