Caitlin Clark, one of the most electric scorers in basketball today, has already made waves in the WNBA as a standout shooter. However, in a lighthearted matchup ahead of the Super Bowl, the Indiana Fever star found herself outgunned—not on the court, but at the arcade.
Clark recently joined two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning in New Orleans for his show, and the duo decided to put their shooting skills to the test in a game of Pop-A-Shot. The arcade challenge, which rewards quick reflexes and rapid-fire shooting, turned into an unexpected upset as the former New York Giants quarterback managed to outscore Clark in the friendly competition.
Despite her deep shooting range and precision on the hardwood, Clark found that the fast-paced, close-range mechanics of Pop-A-Shot didn’t quite translate to her usual dominance. Manning, on the other hand, proved that his accuracy wasn’t limited to the football field, showcasing surprising sharpshooting skills to claim victory.
While the result may have been a fun twist, Clark took the loss in stride, laughing off the moment and proving that even the best shooters in the world can have an off day—especially when the game is played with mini basketballs and an unforgiving arcade timer.
Though Manning may have walked away with the bragging rights this time, there’s no doubt that Clark will be getting the last laugh when she continues lighting up the WNBA with her signature deep threes.
