Caitlin Clark Says Taylor Swift Invited Her to Watch a Kansas City Chiefs Game

Catilin Clark is in her Swiftie era!

The basketball superstar was named Time’s Athlete of the Year this week, and in the corresponding cover story published on Tuesday (Dec. 10), the WNBA athlete recalled attending “back-to-back” Eras Tour performances during Taylor Swift’s run at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Ind., back in early November. She added that during one of the shows, she met with Swift’s boyfriend and fellow athlete Travis Kelce, as well as his mom Donna Kelce.

Clark also recalled that her appearance at the Eras Tour caught the attention of Swift herself, and the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” singer sent her “four bags” of Eras Tour merch, which she says came with a note. In the message, Swift reportedly praised Clark’s skyrocketing career, before inviting her to attend an upcoming Kansas City Chiefs game with her. Swift added that “Trav and I” are aiming to watch her play at an upcoming Indiana Fever game.

Kelce previously opened up about meeting Clark during an episode of his “New Heights” podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Jason Kelce. “Saw Caitlin Clark there, got to meet Caitlin. She’s awesome, she loves being out there in Indianapolis, says it’s a fun city, and we’re both just true Midwesterners to the heart,” said Travis, who grew up in Ohio’s Cleveland Heights, and went to college at the University of Cincinnati. “Played high school ball, college ball, pro ball all out here in the Midwest, and it was cool catching up with her.”
