Caitlin Clark’s recent appearance at the Indianapolis Colts preseason game once again reignited Taylor Swift comparisons. With the day off following an impressive win against Phoenix Mercury, the Indiana Fever rookie was in the stands along with boyfriend and Pacers assistant Conner McCaffery.  

As the Colts worked towards winning their first preseason game, Clark and her boyfriend enjoyed their perfect night out from the suites.


As Clark and McCaffery’s appearance caught fire on Instagram, it didn’t take long for some fans to draw comparisons with pop sensation Taylor Swift.


While some fans adored Caitlin Clark being spotted on Saturday, some were upset, probably because it reminded them how much Taylor dominated football discussions last season. 

NFL purists are considered to be the most dedicated fans of the game. They will show up to games, have discussions on discords and social media for hours, and even analyze the games, elaborately breaking down crucial moments. 

So when the media decided to lean into Taylor Swift’s NFL appearances, it bothered a lot of fans who only wished to enjoy football and nothing more.

It’s not known how much interest Caitlin has in football. After all, this was likely her first appearance on the NFL stage. However, being the star of an Indiana-based sports franchise serves as an indication that we may spot the WNBA sensation down the stretch this season.

As for the comparisons between the two icons, one skill is undeniably common; their ability to draw crowds and make millions. Both made unanticipated strides early in their careers and have gone on to become polarizing figures in their professions.

The key to their success is as much about their ability to draw passionate fans as much as their dedication towards their craft. While Swift is 34 and still going strong, Clark is a 22-year-old rookie who has lots many career accomplishments ahead of her. 

While some may view comparing Caitlin Clark and Taylor Swift as nonsense, it is hard to look over the similarities they share in terms of career trajectory despite the age difference. Though the two meeting each other anytime soon is highly unlikely, perhaps one day both will come together to break the internet.
