Caitlin Clark is set to have her illustrious career honored by the University of Iowa as they retire her No. 22 jersey on February 2, 2024. This significant event will take place at Iowa’s Carver-Hawkeye Arena. It will be a memorable day for the young WNBA star as the date chosen is particularly meaningful. It corresponds with her jersey number.
In her senior season, Clark hit one after the other milestones during her stay at the camp. She was averaging an impressive 31.6 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 8.9 assists per game. Clark also went on to break records and surpassed legends like Pete Maravich and Kelsey Plum. And she became the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer across both men’s and women’s divisions.
However, this honor will place her among other Hawkeye greats, joining the ranks of Megan Gustafson and Michelle Edwards, whose jerseys hang in tribute to their career. As Clark takes to the court one final time on February 2, her fans are eagerly awaiting the ceremony against USC. But the ticket price for the special event is what has the social fans going gaga.
Caitlin Clark’s Jersey Retirement Ceremony Sparks Internet Frenzy
The said event is generating a lot of excitement among college basketball fans, mostly because of the soaring ticket prices. This news quickly made the upcoming game against the USC Trojans a hot ticket, pushing prices on sites like TickPick to all-time highs. Just one day after the announcement, the cheapest ticket was listed at an incredible $711, much higher than the previous lowest price of $283.
Coming from these soaring numbers, fans took to social media to share their emotions.
“I would have had it in the football stadium & probably cashed out even more,” a fan wrote.
“Iowa that’s nasty work,” another fan disapproved of the high prices.
“Even with as good as Caitlin Clark, I still can’t bring myself to watch the WNBA,” a fan commented.
“You said how much?!” another account commented with disbelief.
“711 DOLLARS?” a fan asked.
“I would not pay that priviledged price,” a fan added.
“I’m good. That’s too rich for my blood,” another fan joked.
The hype is real and shows just how much people want to be part of this amazing moment in sports history. The record for ticket prices was previously set during Clark’s last home game when tickets ranged from $358 for standing room to $450 for regular seats.
Now, many fans are finding tickets above $1,000 for the jersey retirement ceremony. Everyone wants to witness this historic occasion and celebrate Clark as one of the greatest players ever. Her No. 22 will soon hang proudly in the rafters of Carver-Hawkeye Arena, a fitting tribute to her remarkable career.
