The Wings are sellouts.
The Dallas Wings sold out season ticket memberships for the 2025 season in record time, the team announced last week.

This could be the last season in Arlington, as the team is slated to begin the 2026 season in its new home: Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas Memorial Auditorium.
Dallas County Juvenile Detention subject of damning report.
A 100-page report from the state’s Office of Inspector General found that teachers and staff at the county’s juvenile detention center falsified reports, didn’t report abuse allegations made by juveniles there, and kept children in seclusion for days. WFAA reports that the facility could not provide the inspector with documentation for 176 of 191 juveniles that would show they were attending classes. So far, several people have been fired, and two top officials have resigned. A criminal investigation is ongoing.
