It was July 10, 1999, event was FIFA-Women’s World Cup, venue was Pasadena, California, game was football, against China, and Brandi Chastain kicked the fifth penalty kick that sealed the win for America in final match.
Brandi Chastain pulled off her jersey and fell on her knees with hands clenched. The moment of insanity and rush of adrenaline ended in few moments but up till then black bra was feasting the eyes of the millions who had glued their eyes to television sets.
Brandi Chastain’s this image was showcased on the covers of Sports Illustrate, Newsweek and Time. Brandi became more famous than ever. As she commented later it was nothing else but the greatest moment of her life and she did it in a rush of blood.
Brandi Chastain’s black sports bra reached in Sports Museum of America. The America Sports Museum has declared bankruptcy and Bra is taken into custody by a U.S bankruptcy court. If Brandy Chastain wants it back she has to pay $250 along with shipping charges to travel from Newark, New Jersey. Chastain very jokingly has commented, “Thanks God I have another one”. So it is not about the Bra, it’s about the lady who worn it and then exposed it on a historic moment.
