Caitlin Clark was the star in the latest Gatorade commercial, which sparked a lot of reactions from fans on social media. The Indiana Fever rookie has become a big deal in the basketball world, especially now that she's a pro and competes against the best players on earth.
A huge Gatorade billboard featuring Clark was spotted in downtown Indianapolis on Friday. It showed the slogan of the brand and a pic of the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft.
"Is it in you?" the billboard outside JW Marriott reads.
This slogan caused a stir on X. One fan wondered if Antonio Brown had something to do with the design.
"Designed by Antonio brown," this person wrote.
Others criticized the people who approved the message.
"How the hell did they approve this," somebody wondered.
"Gatorade got some insane ads 💀," one fan wrote.
A group of fans were more positive about this, criticizing those who didn't know this has been Gatorade's slogan for a long time.
"Face of the league," a fan commented.
One fan talked about Clark's popularity.
"Caitlin Clark is the WNBA. No other player is driving this increase in popularity," this fan wrote.
