VIDEO: Megan Rapinoe Stops in Lyon Airport to Take Pictures With Fans Like a True Legend

Whether on or off the pitch, Megan Rapinoe has been front-and-center in the soccer world of late. And fortunately for the US Women's National Team, the 34-year-old footballing wizard never wavered. All Pinoe did was conduct the charge that lead America to its second consecutive World Cup Title and fourth overall while capturing the Golden Boot as the tournament's top scorer and the Golden Ball as the competition's best player. In sum, the purple-haired USWNT hero is a legend of the game-- and she continued living up to the prestigious label at the Lyon Airport to take selfies and photos with countless fans.

It's really okay if you mistake Rapinoe for Lady Liberty. After all, her iconic celebration, particularly against host nation France, was the ultimate meme-generator on Twitter.

She might be outspoken, but she's the kind of polarizing superstar that athletes -- girls AND boys -- around the globe should look up to due to her sheer relentlessness and conviction.

Never change, Pinoe.
