Caitlin Clark received a warm ovation when she appeared on the video board at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on Sunday.
The Indiana Fever rookie star was attending the Steelers-Colts game, and her presence sent the NFL crowd into a frenzy, following her outstanding rookie season in the WNBA.
Clark was seen enjoying the game, seated between Lexie Hull on her left and her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, on her right.
The Colts ran an interactive ‘Who You Got?’ segment at the stadium for the fans to participate. After asking spectators to pick between Clark and ‘The Haters’ they revealed her presence to those in attendance.
Clark then waved at the camera as the crowd cheered on and applauded Indiana’s newest star.

Throughout the 2024 WNBA season, the No 1 overall pick sent the league’s attendance and viewership numbers to new heights after her collegiate career at the University of Iowa.
Aside from sparking interest in the league, Clark led Indiana to their first WNBA playoff appearance since 2016 before they got swept by the Connecticut Sun in the first round.
Despite being eliminated early, Clark notched another WNBA record at the tail end right before the playoffs, as she now holds the most assists in a single season in the league.
Clark entered their late September game against the defending champion Las Vegas Aces just four assists away from overtaking Connecticut star Alyssa Thomas’ 316 dimes in 2013.

In the first half of the game, Caitlin Clark recorded her historic 317th assist with her fifth dime of the evening. She achieved the milestone with a well-placed inbounds pass to set up her teammate, Kelsey Mitchell.
On July 17, Caitlin Clark broke the WNBA single-game assists record by dishing out 19 dimes against the Dallas Wings. She later set the rookie single-season assists record on August 19.
In addition to her playmaking, Clark made more three-pointers than any rookie in WNBA history and became the first newcomer to record multiple triple-doubles.
Clark finished her debut season averaging 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 8.4 assists, earning the Rookie of the Year title while also ranking near the top in MVP voting.
The Colts gave Clark and their fans a thrilling performance as they won 27-24, improving to a 2-2 record.
