Brandi Chastain gets reunited with her famous sports bra
Professional soccer player Brandi Chastain got reunited with her famous sports bra which she wore during the 1999 World Cup where United States won due to her successful fifth penalty kick that sealed the victory for her country against China.
The aforementioned sports bra was part of the seized items at the Sports Museum of America in New York City after the establishment filed for bankruptcy. The sports bra was loaned to the museum along with hundreds of other sports memorabilia.
In order for the lenders to get back the memorabilia, they were informed to pay $250 plus shipping fees. Early last week, Chastain finally got hold of the sports bra when she arrived to her San Jose home following a practice session with her professional team, the FC Gold Pride.
In an interview with US media, Chastain said that she made numerous phone calls and emails to whoever was in custody of the embargoed items. She said that it is very important for her to have the sports bra back because this is the tenth anniversary since the 1999 World Cup victory.
The photo of Chastain showing off her sports bra was featured in high profile magazines such as Time and Sports Illustrated.
