It’s not every day that you find yourself stealing the spotlight from Taylor Swift, but Caitlin Clark somehow managed to do just that. The basketball sensation recently revealed her surreal weekend attending back-to-back Taylor Swift shows at Lucas Oil Stadium. What should’ve been all about the Eras Tour quickly became a Caitlin Clark moment, with fans turning away from the stage to capture the Iowa star.

“People are just going crazy that I’m there,” she shared with TIME. “I thought people would be so in their own world, ready to see Taylor. And it was just completely the opposite.”

Clark’s presence at the concert wasn’t just noticed—it was celebrated. Fans tossed her friendship bracelets and stopped to snap pictures, proving the power of her rising stardom. Amid the chaos, the point guard experienced a highlight of her own: meeting Swift’s mother Andrea Swift, and boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Swift added her own touch of magic, gifting Clark four bags of Eras Tour merchandise and a heartfelt note. The message? Clark was “inspiring to watch from afar,” the Des Moines-born mentioned to TIME who recently awarded her the Athlete of the Year title. Swift also hinted at plans to attend a Fever game with Kelce once her tour wrapped up and invited Clark to join her for a Chiefs game.

Caitlin Clark: Stealing the spotlight and bridging sports and entertainment

The reigning WNBA ROTY has been in constant fame due to her stellar performance from the NCAA to the WNBA. The weekend was a testament to the reach of Clark’s star power and growth. To think that, just last year, when the Eras Tour’s tickets were quickly selling out, Caitlin Clark was over the moon when she managed to secure one herself.

“Hey, I’m going to Taylor Swift in June too. That’s pretty awesome,” she shared at the time. On the back of that excitement, Clark was asked if she’d like to see Swift attend one of her games. “Hopefully, she likes women’s basketball,” Clark quipped.

Fast forward to this weekend, and Clark’s presence at Taylor Swift’s show turned into a moment of its own. Even at an event designed to celebrate one of the biggest names in music, the Iowa guard’s influence was undeniable. Fans turned their attention from the stage to capture Clark, tossing her friendship bracelets and snapping photos, proving how far her star has risen.

As for the Swifties who may have looked away momentarily, they’ll likely get their chance to see Swift cheer on Clark courtside in the near future. And when that happens, it’s anyone’s guess who will be stealing the spotlight.
