It didn’t matter what Caitlin Clark was doing, she always had to be the best.
Even on Halloween.
In a teaser from an upcoming episode of Netflix’s ‘My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman,’ the Indiana Fever star told Letterman that when she was a child she would abandon her dad in her haste to get the most candy.
‘When we trick-or-treated in Des Moines growing up, I would be like, so sweaty under my costume because I was in a dead sprint from house to house,” Clark said. “I had to have the most candy. That’s how I operated.”
Clark said her dad had trouble finding her and would sometimes come home without her.
‘My mom would get pissed at my dad because it’s like, ‘Why did you lose our daughter? Why is she running through the neighborhood by herself?” Clark said. ‘But it was just because I was trying to beat everybody.’
The clip also included Clark talking about other instances of her competitive streak, including how her family would be mad at her after card games on Christmas.
‘Then everybody hates me by the end of the night and I’m like, ‘Oh, great. I ruined Christmas!” Clark said.
The episode will air April 8.
