49ers statue of Hall of Famer Joe Montana is vandalized at Levi’s

The 49ers suffered more heartache on Monday night than losing their first loss of the season. It turns out they also had to deal with the defacement of Hall of Famer Joe Montana’s statue at Levi’s Stadium.

Wow, real classy to come into Levi Stadium and vandalize Joe’s statue by cutting the face mask off…this is extremely frustrating…Why would someone cut the face mask off?!?!?!?!!!!!!! (I understand this is currently under investigation) pic.twitter.com/EdcfqrAz2F
