Snowfall in Chicago is nothing unusual for residents, but WNBA player Angel Reese was surprised by the sight of snow outside her window. The 22-year-old shared her astonishment on social media, while alpine skiing legend Lindsey Vonn welcomed the winter weather with open arms.
Reese, who hails from Baltimore and attended school in Baton Rouge, was not accustomed to snow and expressed her excitement at seeing it for the first time in Chicago. Vonn, on the other hand, embraced the winter season and welcomed Reese to the Midwest.
Despite Reese’s initial shock, she joked about leaving the city when faced with the snowy weather. This humorous reaction came after Reese made headlines by discussing her WNBA contract and financial struggles during an Instagram Live session.
