Caitlin Clark loves the Kansas City Chiefs, and that’s not a well-kept secret. The Indiana Fever star recently made headlines not for her connection with the Chiefs, but for where she stood in the stands.
When Clark attended a Kansas City Chiefs’ game some time ago, it was all the hype about her linkup with Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.
But despite all that has been said and done, she is standing true to her Indiana roots. Recently, she sent her support to the Indiana University Hoosiers.
Caitlin Clark Extends Her Support To Indiana University Hoosiers
During her time nursing her injuries this season, Clark was mostly enjoying football games alongside Taylor Swift and others.
Recently, Clark shared an Instagram story from Lucas Oil Stadium during a football game, distinctly stating her support for Indiana University (IU) football rather than the Indianapolis Colts, the NFL team that also plays at the venue.

In her post, Clark captured a moment from the Big Ten Championship game, where IU faced off against the Ohio State Buckeyes, who are the top two seeds in the conference.
Why Is Caitlin Clark A Chiefs Fan?
Clark’s love for the Chiefs isn’t new. Multiple sources describe her as a lifelong fan, even before her WNBA days, before her rise to stardom.
However, the Chiefs are indeed the closest NFL team to Iowa, particularly for those growing up in Des Moines, just three hours away from Kansas City.
This geographical proximity helped Clark maintain her loyalty to the Chiefs, influenced by family ties and her father’s fandom, despite now living in Indianapolis.
Even when given the opportunity to support the Colts, she chose to stay true to her roots by refusing to wear their jersey. Additionally, she has been winning all over for staying true to her Chiefs loyalty.
