Looks like Caitlin Clark is breaking more records off the court than on it! The Indiana Fever’s reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year just couldn’t get enough of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Indianapolis. After attending the opening night on Friday, where she undoubtedly exchanged more smiles than shots, Clark returned for round two on Saturday, decked out in true Swiftie spirit—armed with friendship bracelets and a beaming smile. Talk about assists, right?
Lucas Oil Stadium might be known for football, but over the weekend, it hosted a different kind of magic. Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour took over Indy for three consecutive nights, and Clark was there for two of them. That’s some serious Swiftie commitment. Maybe basketball isn’t the only thing she’s obsessed with—Taylor’s tunes are apparently running a close second.
And yes, you read that right. The same Caitlin Clark who’s spent the year breaking WNBA records and dishing out assists like they’re candy, was spotted exchanging friendship bracelets with fans before Swift’s Saturday concert. What better way to take a break from destroying opponents on the court than engaging in some good old Swiftie tradition? Fans lucky enough to snag a bracelet from her might just want to hold onto that—NBA merch value, meet Swiftie memorabilia.
Swifties, Friendship Bracelets, and… Caitlin Clark?
If you thought Caitlin Clark’s talents were confined to basketball, think again. It turns out she’s a top-tier friendship bracelet swapper too! Swifties have turned this trend into an art form, crafting beaded bracelets to trade at concerts like they’re limited edition cards. If you managed to get one from Clark, well, congratulations! You just scored a slam dunk in Swiftie land.
But really, can we talk about how Clark just blends into the crowd? One minute she’s breaking WNBA single-season assist records (no big deal), and the next, she’s out there casually hanging with Swifties like it’s a normal Saturday. It’s nice to know that even superstar athletes can be hardcore fans. Or maybe she was scouting Swift’s fan base for a new kind of court domination—bracelet trading, the next big sport?
Lucas Oil Stadium Shattered More Than Just Eardrums
In case you were wondering, Taylor Swift broke yet another record on opening night, with 69,000 tickets sold—breaking the stadium’s all-time attendance record. You’d think she was running for mayor of Indianapolis at this point. And while Swift’s numbers were impressive, it’s nothing Caitlin Clark doesn’t know a thing or two about. She’s only helped the Fever rank first in WNBA attendance this season—no big deal.
The crossover of basketball and pop culture continues to grow, and Clark is right at the center of it. Just last week, she made the cover of Time Magazine‘s “Inspiring Women” issue alongside Swift, Serena Williams, and, of course, Halle Berry. This girl is everywhere—court-side, cover-shoots, and now concert venues. Is there anything Caitlin Clark doesn’t do?
Dancing, Travis Kelce, and Caitlin Clark—Oh My!
Clark wasn’t the only athlete drawing eyes at the concert. NFL star and rumored Swiftie-favorite Travis Kelce also made headlines when he was seen enjoying the show. The internet naturally exploded with fan theories as Clark and Kelce were spotted in the same vicinity at the concert. Dancing? Maybe. Coincidence? Probably. A new power duo? Not quite. But it didn’t stop Swifties from buzzing about the “what ifs.” One thing’s for sure: Clark is doing more than breaking records, she’s breaking the internet too.
At just 22 years old, Caitlin Clark is quickly becoming a household name in basketball—and, apparently, in the Swiftie fandom. With her star rising both on and off the court, it’s clear that Clark is more than just a sharpshooter. She’s now officially a pop-culture icon, a bracelet-swapping Swiftie, and a beacon for the next generation of female athletes.
