Tickets Went From Courtside to Clearance 😭💰
Caitlin’s out. Ticket prices are down bad…
Caitlin Clark is out with a quad strain, and the ticket resale market instantly folded like a lawn chair. Indiana Fever vs Chicago Sky tickets dropped from $86 to $25 the second the news hit. That’s a 71% drop. Not even crypto dips that fast.
The get-in price for Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky vs Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever game on June 7 was $86 just 48 hours ago… now it’s down to $25 after Clark’s injury announcement

This game was supposed to be the rematch. Caitlin Clark vs Angel Reese. Flagrantery and vibes. They literally moved it to the United Center to fit 20,000+ people who wanted to witness live drama. Now it’s just one half of the rivalry and a bunch of people pretending it’s still the same.
Caitlin Clark could help the WNBA bring in nearly $1 Billion this season 🤯

Look, I do feel bad if you bought a ticket for yourself. That sucks. You were just trying to see Caitlin Clark in real life, maybe watch her hit a logo three, and beef some more with someone. Now she’s on the bench in a hoodie. It’s not the same.
CAITLIN CLARK VS. ANGEL REESE. 🍿🔥

But, resellers are cooked, and I couldn’t be happier. If you bought up WNBA tickets just to flip them, I hope you lose money, sleep, and every cold side of the pillow for the rest of the summer.
She’s Out Four Games, Maybe More
According to WNBA news, it’s a quad strain. She’s missing at least four games, probably more. That includes the Mystics matchup in Baltimore (ticket prices tanked there too), and the Sky game in Chicago, which was supposed to be the event.
Caitlin Clark has suffered a left quadriceps strain and will be out a minimum of two weeks.

What’s wild is how fast everything crashed. Teams were moving games to bigger arenas for the Caitlin boost, and now they’re just trying not to play in front of rows of empty chairs. WNBA rumors and drama might actually be the backbone of the entire league economy, tbh.
When Is the Economy Coming Back??
If rehab goes fine, she might be back June 10 for the Dream game. That one’s already sold out and prices are still around $150—because the arena holds 3,500 people, and the Clark speculation alone has people moving like bots at drop time.
After that, it’s full send for WNBA games. Chase Center on June 19. Fever vs. Dallas and Paige Bueckers on June 27. If she’s active for that part of the Indiana Fever schedule, prices will be unhinged again, and resellers will act like nothing ever happened.
But for now, yeah. Caitlin’s out. Ticket prices are down bad. And if you’re sitting on a bunch of resale listings hoping the hype picks back up… couldn’t be me.
