Country Music Legend Calls Meeting Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever Team 'Absolute Dream' originally appeared on Parade.

Country legend Wynonna Judd, 61, made a surprise visit to the Indiana Fever before Sunday's (July 27) game against the Chicago Sky — and she was as excited to meet the Fever players as they were to meet her.

"The squad got to meet Grammy award-winner Wynonna Judd before today’s game in Chicago ❤️🎶," captioned the Fever's Instagram post on a series of photos and video of Judd posing with stars Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham and Lexie Hull.

In the video, Cunningham gives Judd a huge hug and exclaims, "You are such a star, you are awesome! How are you? Oh, don't cry!"

Then Judd can be heard saying, "No, I'm serious. I don't get excited about a lot, but this is my absolute dream."

She also got to hug and say hello to head coach Stephanie White, who can be heard saying, "Great to meet you!"

On Judd's Instagram stories, she reposted the Fever's photos and wrote, "The quartet you didn't know you needed," on the photo of her alongside Clark, Cunningham and Hull.

In the comments, fans can't believe how Judd is dwarfed by the WNBA players.

"I thought Wynonna’s as tall as them. She looks tiny!" wrote one fan, to which another fan replied, " I thought the same thing. Players look like giants next to her. I googled it… Wynonna is 5’5”."

"Smooth voice and splash sisters! Love to see it," wrote a third fan.

A fourth fan, "SWEET!!!! My favorite Redhead with my favorite ballers in the world!!!!! Love this!!!!!"

"This is SO AWESOME!! Four amazing, talented women right there! Go Fever and have a blast Wy !!," wrote a fifth fan.

The Fever beat the Sky 93-78 on the back of Kelsey Mitchell's 35 points and six assists; Mitchell has been stepping way up in Clark's absence as Clark battles injuries this season. The Fever have improved to 14-12 on the year.
