Caitlin Clark corn maze carved into Indiana orchard as they pay homage to WNBA superstar

Caitlin Clark’s star power has resonated throughout women’s basketball, particularly in Indiana, where she was awarded WNBA Rookie of the Year in her first season with the state’s Fever team.

Her fame has reached new heights, and this Halloween season, a local orchard decided to honor Clark in a unique way.

County Line Orchard in Hobart, Indiana, created a massive corn maze featuring Clark wearing her No. 22 Fever jersey and holding a basketball. The maze also spells out “We [heart] Caitlin Clark” when viewed from above.

The orchard visitors have been amazed by the tribute to Clark, but the chief operating officer, Dana More, credits her nieces, who are huge fans of Clark, for the idea.

“I can’t take credit,” More told Fox 32 Chicago. “It was my nieces. We were watching the WNBA Draft and, of course, Caitlin Clark got selected by the Fever, and my nieces said, ‘Auntie Dana, that should be at your corn maze this year!’ And I said, ‘I love it!’”

“So, I texted our owner immediately, and he responded with, ‘I’m in.’ And from there, it was really just off to the races.”

Ryan Richardson, the owner mentioned by More, noted that they have had elaborate corn mazes in the past, like ones themed after the Chicago Blackhawks.

However, honoring Clark, who is already a superstar in Indiana, made perfect sense this year given her WNBA accomplishments and accolades.

The Clark-themed maze quickly became popular once visitors started coming to County Line Orchard, with news of the tribute spreading rapidly on social media, even reaching Clark herself.

More shared that tickets to a Fever game were sent over for her and her nieces to enjoy, where they had the opportunity to meet Clark.

“It was really a once in a lifetime opportunity for me and [my nieces], and Caitlin Clark was kind enough to come over and sign their jerseys,” More explained. “The smiles on their faces… I will never ever forget. I may be aunt of the century.”

Clark’s rookie season was not only a success for her personally but also for women’s basketball as a whole, as she stood out among an impressive rookie class and contributed to the league’s continued growth in viewership, engagement, and attendance.

Clark helped the Fever reach the playoffs and set multiple rookie and league records, including most points, most three-pointers made by a rookie, and most assists in a season.

The WNBA saw record viewership in the Fever’s playoff games against the Connecticut Sun, with Game 2 breaking the previous record set in Game 1.
