Northwestern Arena Sells Out for Women’s Basketball Game as Fans Flock to See Iowa’s Caitlin Clark – Cheapest General Admissions Tickets Reportedly Go for $230

Fans stood for hours to see women’s basketball game in Chicago last night. The Northwestern University women’s game sold out for the first time in history.

The fans flocked to see Iowa’s Caitlin Clark play in person. There has never been a more popular women’s basketball player in history.

Obviously I’d love to see more purple mixed in here, but the ability of one player to elevate women’s basketball to this level is so incredibly cool. The Caitlin Clark effect. pic.twitter.com/WFIGoKS7Rf

Local Chicago girls turned out to see Caitlin Clark play at Northwestern.

Incredible.

This is the line outside of Welsh-Ryan arena 90 minutes before tipoff, and I didn’t even film the part of the line that extended onto the street.
