What the Hell is this?
Brandi Chastain is a two-time World Cup winner and two-time Olympic gold medalist who played 192 games for the United States national team.
She was accepted into the Bay Area Hall of Fame recently with a bronze plaque featuring an image that looks nothing like her:
This Brandi Chastain plaque is bad. Really bad. https://t.co/5fcX6sVxFj pic.twitter.com/lOY8Npo1CR

Holy hell! How does this happen?
It’s like the Ben Simmons bobblehead, the one that looks like Luther Vandross.
Brandi was a trooper and took some pictures with the plaque anyway:

Personally, I think it kind of looks like Aunt Lydia from the Handmaid’s Tale. GREAT show on Hulu right now, watch it if you have time:

Was the Brandi Chastain plaque maker craving Wendy's when they made this? pic.twitter.com/NwA26DItFe

Brandi Chastain’s plaque looks like someone tried to imagine Babe Ruth doing the @chrissyteigen face. pic.twitter.com/KujRc44KQH

After seeing the hall-of-fame plaque for @brandichastain … I've come to the conclusion that statue/plaque makers hate soccer players. Brandi Chastain, of course, posed next to it like a class act. pic.twitter.com/NyHUAbmVLM
