WNBA fans made so many Ellie the Elephant jokes after the Liberty won its first championship

GIVE ELLIE THE ELEPHANT A CHAMPIONSHIP RING!

The New York Liberty are finally WNBA champions and of everyone most deserving of a ring, it’s definitely the one and only Ellie the Elephant.

The Liberty’s spirited and fiery mascot has been a fan-favorite of WNBA fans for some time now — between her dramatic personality and incredible outfits — but now that New York finally has won its first championship, basketball fans are clamoring for Ellie to get her due.

After Sunday’s win, Ellie was seen celebrating right alongside the Liberty, even falling to the court in joy after a hard-fought road to get to this point.

And as the confetti was raining down on the Liberty, WNBA fans couldn’t help but make jokes about Ellie the Elephant being a champion too.
