LosLynx
"LosLynx" is the unofficial rallying cry of the Minnesota Lynx. The term's genesis was a 2010 commercial for Bing that parodied telenovellas. The commercial ended with a man yelling "Los Links!" Lynx guard Lindsay Whalen was amused by the commercial and the obvious homophone, and began imitating the cry in practice.
When guard Candice Wiggins, who had been injured for much of the 2010 season, returned in 2011, she heard the phrase in practice. It reminded her of her own thoughts regarding promotions in NBA cities with significant Spanish-speaking populations, in which teams like the Miami Heat would wear jerseys identifying them as "El Heat." She had thought that a promotion for "Los Lynx" would be entertaining.
Eventually, Wiggins tweeted the term as a hashtag on a post about the team. From there, the meme quickly spread throughout the fanbase, inspiring chants and cheers, and even appearing on T-shirts sold by Lynx forward Charde Houston.
In addition to LosLynx, the hashtag #LYNXANITY became a popular post-win tweet for Lynx fans during the 2011 playoffs.
