Damn, I actually would have bought one of those for the pool as the "money ball" at the end of a shooting contest...
Caitlin Clark's Endorsements: Nike ($28M Shoe Deal), State Farm, Gatorade, Wilson, Gainbridge, Hy-Vee, Panini Trading Cards, Comcast, Bose, ShootAWay
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Do they advertise when these come out? I'd love a ball but they keep selling out. All these companies keep underestimating the number of fans Caitlin has
i didn't know these mini-balls were being produced; I just knew of the full size Caitlin signature balls
Earning that State Farm pay check
This is insane. Is Gainbridge associated with Nascar? Wondering how this came about....
Note that Zeigler Auto Group and Gainbridge serve as co-primary sponsors of NASCAR Cup Series rookie Carson Hocevar and the No. 77 Chevrolet Camaro.
However, for this car (with Caitlin on the hood), Panini Trading Cards is the sponsor.
The Gainbridge & Panini sponsored cars:
Interesting that Gainbridge is a sponsor and yet Clark is in her Iowa uni and not the Indiana one...And the race is in INDY...Note that Zeigler Auto Group and Gainbridge serve as co-primary sponsors of NASCAR Cup Series rookie Carson Hocevar and the No. 77 Chevrolet Camaro.

a free advertisement for the Iowa women's basketball program
here's a bit more info:
The car’s paint scheme will be focused around one of the rookie’s trading cards – “Raining 3s” – that is part of Panini’s recently released Caitlin Clark Collection now available nationwide. Clark is shown on the car’s hood wearing her #22 Iowa Hawkeyes jersey and shooting a jumper.
“We are proud to be partnering with driver Josh Berry and Stewart-Haas Racing, starting at the Brickyard 400,” said Jason Howarth, Senior VP at Panini America.
“Panini America and NASCAR have had a long and successful relationship, and this is another great example of that. Josh has been exciting to watch this season and we look forward to some great finishes.”
Berry is a rookie in the NASCAR Cup Series and currently sits 21st in the point standings. He will be participating in the Brickyard 400, which starts at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Awe, CC just got smashed off the wall. I bet those WNBA biatches are behind this...Lolol...
The Boardroom's 8 Most Marketable Athletes 25 & Under:
Accolades: WNBA All-Star, WNBA No. 1 Pick, All-Time Leading Scorer in D1 Basketball, 2x College Player of the Year, 4x First Team All-American, McDonald’s All-American
Following: 2.7M on IG, 451K on TikTok, 425K on X
Money Moves: Nike, State Farm, Gatorade, Bose, Goldman Sachs, Gainbridge, Wilson, Panini America, Buick
Men lie, women lie, and men mostly lie about women’s sports. What does not lie is numbers.
Caitlin Clark is multiplying the metrics on women’s basketball at an exponential rate. She’s not doing it alone, and she’s not doing it first, but she is doing it like no one before. In college, Clark set records in scoring and streaming. In only months as a pro, the WNBA media rights have tripled.
While the entirety of the W’s growth can’t be pinned exclusively on Clark, her impact is immense. Don’t believe us? Look at the YouTube views for Indiana Fever highlights versus that of every other franchise.
True to history, success comes with envy. Pete Maravich and Mike Jordan faced the same shade in their rookie arrivals due to their inordinate interest and disproportionate earnings. Just the same, they put brands, leagues, and entire markets on the map.
In Indiana, the state where basketball blossomed, Clark has a chance to galvanize not just a downtown district but the entire Midwest. Boys and girls too young to see Steph’s ascent or Kobe’s competitiveness have a hybrid hero in Caitlin who feels entirely new and uniquely relatable.
Hot takes or loaded lies aside, the Caitlin Clark Effect is very real. The numbers back it and they’re only going up.

Do you think we could have a fresh new thread for each game the Fever play for the rest of the season. This mega thread is getting hard to follow.
How hard is it for Wilson to crank out more pieces of rubber? You would think you just dump in more ingredients and hit a button. How do they keep selling out?
If nothing else, if I were Wilson, I would take the customers' orders and guarantee that they will get the product and that their card won't be charged until the day of delivery.
Keeping people looking for the next one.
If they keep production low they can keep selling the next one…once you bump the production and everyone that wants one has one…they will stop buying. With low production…even those that already have one will keep trying to get the next one.
Having the balls sell out is free advertising from the news, twitter, and places like this. Helps sell other products.
