Caitlin Clark x Sin City … count me in!

The Las Vegas Aces square off Tuesday night against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever, however, they won’t be hosting on the same court that they’re accustomed to — once again proving the power of “The Caitlin Clark Effect.”

The Aces normally play their home games on the court of Michelob ULTRA Arena, but since the demand to see Clark is so high, the contest has been moved to T-Mobile Arena. The relocation allows the seating capacity to be shot up from 12,000 to 18,000, according to the New York Post.

It’s expected that the game will sell out, and fans will be paying a pretty penny to pack the arena at that.

According to SeatGeek, the cheapest tickets available are $95, and this is without the fees that will be included. A load of tickets are placed on sale for more than a cool $1,000.

The Caitlin Clark Effect … never ceases to amaze me.

Let me put into perspective how crazy this is: For example, for Thursday’s game between the Aces and Washington Mystics, get-in ticket prices were listed at around $20. As you see, the cheapest ticket to get into Aces/Fever is $95, just a massive difference.

Absolutely insane what Caitlin Clark is doing, and maintaining at that.
