Caitlin Clark doesn’t view the Indiana Fever’s upcoming game vs Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky as a “rivalry game.”
On Sunday afternoon, Clark and the Fever will face off against the Sky for the third time this season in a highly anticipated game.
After the first two games featured heated moments involving Clark and Sky players, ticket prices have soared and Sunday’s game will be the most expensive game in WNBA history.
Sunday’s Chicago Sky-Indiana Fever game is the most expensive WNBA game on record with an average purchase price of $271 – 207% higher than the Sky’s home average purchase price of $88.
While this is the third time these two teams have played each other this season, demand to see Clark and Reese face off has seemingly skyrocketed as the season has progressed. TickPick notes that the “get-in” price for this Sunday’s game is $249 – 336% more expensive than the “get-in” price of their last matchup in Indianapolis on June 16th ($57). The most expensive ticket available is going for $9,131.
Comparing this game across other Chicago sports, the Sky-Fever game is 131% more expensive than the Chicago Bulls’ home average purchase price last season ($117) and 34% more expensive than the average purchase price of a Chicago Bears home game this upcoming season ($201).
Despite all the attention the game is getting, Clark is trying to downplay the importance of the game in the grand scheme of things.
