WNBA Seattle Storm T-shirt from Inaugural Season, 2000

The Seattle Storm is a Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) team founded by Ginger Ackerley and her husband Barry in 2000. The inaugural season was disappointing starting with a 47-77 loss to the Houston Comets and ending with a 6-26 record finish. But the team's momentum picked up led by high-quality players like Sue Bird, Swin Cash, Lauren Jackson, and Breanna Stewart. The Storm have gone on to win four WNBA Championships in 2004, 2010, 2018, and 2020. Before being donated, this shirt was stored next to another item which imprinted a grayish mark on the fabric.
