Dan Gable has already been immortalized in one sculpture, the large bronze statue that stands outside Carver-Hawkeye Arena:
This weekend he was immortalized* in a new form -- cheese:
A sculpture of @Hawks_Wrestling legend Dan Gable was carved out of a 3,000 pound wheel of cheese this week at @HyVee.

HyVee will be donating a dollar to the Dan Gable National Wrestling Hall of Fame for every pound sold from the wheel! pic.twitter.com/dJJHlZmRUN
Behold, the Big Cheese of college wrestling:
“Probably never thought I would have a cheese that looked like me. I always tried to beat my opponents up in a wrestling match and they looked like cheese when they were done, but I think it`s cool,” said Gable.

Never before has the GOAT looked so delicious.
*He can't really be "immortalized" in cheese, since cheese doesn't last forever, but hey...
