Methodist Healthcare preps newborns for first Spurs game in honor of season opener

Methodist Healthcare prepared newborns in Spurs-themed garments for the team's season opener on Tuesday, October 20, 2026. The hospital staff adorned infants with Spurs onesies and even adorned Sesame Street plush toys in basketball gear for the big game. Two of the tiny fans were dressed in the signature Silver and Black colors, ready to cheer on their new team with a resounding "Go Spurs Go!"

This is not the first time Methodist Healthcare babies have supported the Spurs; in 2024, newborns born on opening night were photographed wearing Coyote onesies and snuggling with Coyote stuffed animals. The Spurs will take on the Oklahoma City Thunder at 8:30 p.m. at the Frost Bank Center, following their victory in Game 7 of the Western Conference finals.
