Bronze Ronaldo is… bronze.
Almost as bronze as the other Ronaldo.
Doesn’t someone have to start the requisite discussion of whether or not the sculptor put the proper number of chins in?
But yeah, there are worse footballers to make a statue for.
I think it says a lot about how far soccer has come in North America when you see a statue of a soccer player on the Nike Campus.
is that a bronze pimple on his bronze chin???
Probably just a crumb from his late afternoon snack!
@Sam I’ll just assume that Ronaldo made Nike enough money to earn that statue.
