Taylor Swift has officially gained a new fan in Anne Clark, mother of WNBA Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark. The Indiana Fever superstar shared that her mom became a full-fledged Swiftie after they attended Swift’s sold-out Eras Tour in Indianapolis—a transformative experience that brought the mother-daughter duo even closer.
Caitlin’s Swiftie Conversion Story
Clark revealed the memorable experience during her appearance on Travis and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast. The basketball phenom gushed about her mom’s enthusiasm for the show and how it led to a bonding experience unlike any other.
“My mom was begging me to take her,” Caitlin shared. “She was like, ‘I gotta go, everybody is talking about it.’ I’m like, ‘Okay, okay.’”
Clark eventually gave in, and the pair attended one of Swift’s iconic performances. The result? Anne Clark left the concert as a newly minted Swiftie, joining the legions of fans enamored with the pop superstar.
“Turned my mom into a full Swiftie,” Caitlin laughed. “Two of my cousins were there, too. We had a really good time!”
The Kelce brothers, both known Swift fans (especially Travis, given his high-profile relationship with the singer), were thrilled to hear the story. The duo gave a simultaneous “Nice!” in approval as Caitlin recounted the experience.

Multiple Shows and Balcony Views
Clark didn’t stop at one concert. The basketball star attended three Eras Tour shows in total—two in Indianapolis and one in Minnesota with her college friends. Even on the one night she wasn’t at Lucas Oil Stadium, Clark couldn’t resist the magic of Swift’s performance. She stood on her balcony, soaking in the music from afar, proving she wasn’t about to miss a moment of the action.
“I just didn’t want to miss a second,” she admitted, highlighting the concert’s magnetic pull even for someone who couldn’t physically be in the arena that night.
A Rave Review from a Rising Star
Clark, who has dazzled fans on the court with her electric play style, had nothing but praise for Swift’s performance. She described the atmosphere as “electric,” marveling at the energy and spectacle of the Eras Tour.
“We had a good time together,” Clark said of her experience with her mom. “I don’t know how you couldn’t have a good time at something like that.”
A Memorable Year for Caitlin Clark
The Eras Tour wasn’t the only highlight for Clark this year. The 22-year-old guard capped off her rookie season in the WNBA by winning Rookie of the Year honors and helping rejuvenate the Indiana Fever franchise.
Known for her electrifying presence on the court, Clark’s passion for basketball seems to extend effortlessly into her love for live music, particularly Taylor Swift’s larger-than-life concerts.
Swift’s Growing Sports Star Fanbase
Clark’s Swiftie story adds another layer to Taylor Swift’s growing influence within the sports world. From NFL stars like Travis Kelce to basketball sensations like Caitlin Clark, the Eras Tour has left an indelible mark on athletes and fans alike.
For Clark, the experience was not only a chance to enjoy one of the biggest musical events of the year but also an opportunity to share unforgettable memories with her mom.
Whether it’s hitting game-winning threes or singing along to “Love Story,” Caitlin Clark continues to shine both on and off the court—and now, she has the Eras Tour memories to prove it.
