A massive new corn maze featuring a likeness of Caitlin Clark at the County Line Orchard in Hobart, Indiana was created to pay tribute to women’s sports (and Caitlin) and it is the best thing to happen since the butter statue of Clark.
The Caitlin Clark corn maze has also provided me a moment of clarity, an ‘aha moment’ if you will, where I’ve come to the realization that every time I think the Midwest has reached ‘Peak Caitlin Clark Hype’ I’m drastically underestimating the fine folks of the American Heartland because the sky’s the limit when it comes to CC fandom.
Wedding photographer/videographer Matt Scott was the first person to share pictures of the Caitlin Clark corn maze at the County Line Orchard in Hobart. He followed up the photos with a video today and honestly, both are incredible but I’m partial to the YouTube video so we’ll start there:
Is it perfect? Yes, yes it is. But because this is the Internet and because we have to find something to complain about, I will point out that as far as ‘difficulty factor’ goes, this corn maze of Caitlin looks pretty easy. The ‘E’ looks like the only place one could reasonably get set back in this corn maze but follow along with your finger for yourself and see if you agree that this Caitlin Clark corn maze is easy:
The only conceivable way to make this corn maze any better is to plop a Caitlin Clark butter statue right at the exit. Allowing maze runners to lay eyes on a Caitlin Clark butter statue just before they exit the corn maze would really be the cherry on top of this incredible sundae.
This corn maze has enough people in the midwest so hyped that ABC 7 Chicago actually sent a helicopter of their own to fly over the orchard:
It should come as no surprise that she’s received this honor. Her popularity is so immense she has made the NFL irrelevant in large swaths of the Midwest. It really is Caitlin Clark’s world right now and we’re just living in it.
