Grandma Kitty’s love for Curry and the Warriors first gained attention in January when her granddaughter, Maddie, shared a TikTok video of her detailed game-tracking notebook.

The notebook includes stats, game schedules and Curry’s performances—something she meticulously records while watching on NBA League Pass. The video quickly went viral, capturing the hearts of fans and eventually reaching Curry himself.

In response, Curry sent a video message inviting her to the game. Grandma Kitty’s reaction to the invitation was filled with disbelief and excitement as she expressed her admiration for Curry.

For Grandma Kitty, the experience was more than just a game—it was the realization of a lifelong dream.
