Caitlin Clark sits with Taylor Swift in the suite for the Chiefs game by earlier invitation

Caitlin Clark has finally taken Taylor Swift up on an offer to watch a Kansas City Chiefs game together.

Clark was spotted in the same suite as Swift at Arrowhead Stadium during the Chiefs’ divisional round playoff game against the Houston Texans on Saturday.

This is the first time Clark and Swift have been seen at a match together, after Clark claims she was invited by Swift to attend earlier in the season.

Clark, a lifelong Chiefs fan, said in her Time Magazine Athlete of The Year interview that Swift and Travis Kelce extended the invitation to Clark when she went to see Swift’s Eras Tour concert at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis in early November.

Clark she said see three of Swift’s Eras Tour concerts, including two straight nights when Swift was in Indianapolis in November. While there, Clark said fans threw her so many friendship bracelets that when she put them all on, it cut off her circulation.

“I had a ton, all the way up my arm. I had to take them off. My circulation was getting cut off,” Clark said at the Women’s Leadership Summit in November. “Everybody just threw their bracelets at me.”

At that summit, Clark also revealed that Swift is her favorite musical artist.

Kelce said during an episode on his podcast, “New Heights,” that he met Clark at one of those concerts. Later, he invited Clark himself on the podcast for an extensive interview.

Clark was also recently pictured alongside Swift on the cover of Time Magazine’s latest Inspiring Women special in late October. Clark and Swift were the only two figures on the top row, with Clark the highest-ranked athlete above veteran sports icons Serena Williams and Megan Rapinoe.

The resurgence of an earlier social media post by Clark while she was in college has also brought the fanbases of her closer characters together.

“Taylor Swift welcome to the good side,” Clark wrote on September 24, 2023 in a post on X right after Swift went public with her relationship with Kelce in September 2023.

An influx of interest in Clark from Swift fans occurred after a controversial podcast episode performed by the Clarks arch rival Angel Reese in October.

Reese, who has played emotional, high-stakes matches against Clark dating back to college and has made off-court comments about Clark’s fans, hosted Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole, who is a promotional model, media personality, on-air host and entertainment journalist on Instagram.

During the performance, Nicole claimed that she’s been receiving relationship hate ever since Kelce started dating Swift instead of her.

That interview ignited a hotly debated controversy on social media, with some defending Nicole and sympathizing with her for the alleged hate she received. However, others, and many who openly identify as Swift fans, criticized Nicole and Reese for the interview.

Many of those same Swift fans declared themselves fans of Clark in response to Reese’s interview. Clark and Reese have one of the hottest rivalries in women’s sports at the moment, as their respective fanbases have been passionately opposed to each other for over a year.

Clark has also been associated with Swift’s political beliefs.

Earlier in Clark’s rookie season, she liked Swift’s Instagram post announcing the singer’s September 10 endorsement of Kamala Harris.

However, Clark did not endorse a candidate himself when asked if he liked Swift’s endorsement of Harris. Clark instead responded with a message about the importance of asking people to vote.

“I think, for myself, I have this great platform,” she told reporters at an Indiana Fever team press conference on Sept. 11. “So I think the biggest thing would be to encourage people to register to vote. I think this is the second time I’ve been able to vote in an election. That’s the biggest thing I can do with the platform that I has – the same as Taylor did.

“And I think continue to educate yourself about the candidates that we have, policies that they support. I think that’s the biggest thing that you can do. And that’s what I would recommend to every single person who has the opportunity in our country.”
