Iowa Retires Caitlin Clark Jersey, Ticket Prices Soar

The University of Iowa has announced plans to retire the jersey of Caitlin Clark, widely regarded as one of the greatest women’s college basketball players. The ceremony will take place on February 2, 2025, coinciding with a home game against USC Trojans.

Fans eager to attend the event face a steep price tag, as tickets for all Iowa home games are already sold out and prices on the secondary market have skyrocketed. A single ticket for the Clark jersey retirement ceremony can cost upwards of $500, with fees adding an extra $1,300 total.

In comparison, South Carolina University is also retiring its three-time WNBA MVP’s jersey, A’ja Wilson, on the same date, but prices are significantly lower. Tickets to the event in Columbia, South Carolina can be purchased for under $50, making it a more affordable option for fans seeking to honor their favorite players.
