New York Liberty News Release
The New York Liberty and American Express are teaming up to help fans show their love to current and former Liberty players at a Legends Weekend pop-up in Union Square Plaza this Saturday, Aug. 9. Fans who stop by the flower shop-themed activation will be invited to "give their favorite players their flowers" - adding flowers and handwritten messages of support to bouquets for players past and present. In return, fans will take a flower home with them.
