A few Valkyries are still hanging around Chase Center. Gabby Williams and Kiah Stokes got an ovation from those in the crowd that noticed them walking toward the tunnel.

Ho Chi Minh City was called Saigon during the Vietnam War and was the capital of US-allied South Vietnam; North Vietnam's capital was Hanoi.
