As an athlete, one must travel far and wide owing to professional commitment. As Megan Rapinoe says, the memories that are thus created are not just restricted to professional achievements but also personal anecdotes. The 2011 World Cup was not the best for the USWNT, as they lost to Japan; there are not many good memories on the field.

But the 2011 World Cup engraved a special memory in Megan’s mind. That’s something that happened off the field!

Megan travels back 

For the professional tours, Megan’s mother accompanies her. Speaking about her mother’s peculiar habit, the soccer star says, “whenever she travels, half of her suitcase is dedicated to pajamas.” Traveling back in time, Megan reveals that in 2011, her mother was going through menopause.

Thus, with all the hormonal imbalance, Ms. Denise Rapinoe went a bit too far with her pajamas. As Megan quotes, “when your hormones get out of whack,” her mother started going to bed with a different set of pajamas. As the soccer star recalls, her mother made no exceptions!
