Tom Brady has finally admitted what everyone who was watching him celebrate winning his seventh Super Bowl pretty much knew.
The former Patriots and Buccaneers quarterback was seen throwing the Lombardi Trophy from one boat to another during the Bucs’ parade. It seemed like the greatest of all time had indulged a little more than he should have on the day, and he’s finally fessed up.
Speaking to former teammate Rob Gronkowski on his ‘Let’s Go’ podcast, Brady said that he did not consider the potential consequences of the Lombardi falling into the water.
“I feel like you kind of had like, two drinks, and you hadn’t in a couple of years and the two drinks, compared to someone else, would be dead sober and very capable,” Gronkowski told him (H/T People). “You had two drinks and were like, ‘Oh I’m feeling it.’”
“I was definitely inebriated, because had I not been, I don’t think I would’ve taken the chance realizing that thing would’ve fallen like 90 ft. to the bottom of the bay,” TB12 admitted.
Well, tell us something we don’t know.
It would have been quite something had Brady’s teammates not caught what was perhaps the most important pass of his career. But we imagine it’s a matter a few good divers could have sorted out had it come to that.
