DeMita also expressed concern about the wave of fan responses and social media petitions, calling it an overreaction.

“Now, fans are petitioning for the All-Star Game not to be held in Indiana because it’s clearly not safe. There is a petition for Dave Portnoy to never be able to attend WNBA games. There is a petition for Caitlin Clark to be arrested,” she said.

“I’m not joking when I say this — arrested. This is something that has also gone viral. There’s a petition that has gone viral on social media for Caitlin Clark to be arrested because she ‘stat-padded’… and that’s why Dave Portnoy hit his parlay and won over $300,000.”

While both Clark and Reese seem to have moved on, the fan bases clearly haven’t.
