The Pickle Pad is riding America’s pickleball wave into four new states—Florida, New Jersey, Texas and Alabama—bringing its development pipeline to seven venues and lining up three grand openings for the fourth quarter. The Dallas company says its “multi-experience” formula, which marries pickleball courts with dining and other attractions, is powering the accelerated build-out.

Red Panda, the renowned unicycle performer cherished by fans worldwide, suffered a fall during her halftime show at the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup final. The unexpected accident led to her being taken off the court in a wheelchair, leaving spectators and players in shock.
