Tom Brady Reveals ‘Stupid’ Thing He Did During First Super Bowl Week

These days, Tom Brady is all business during his annual trip to the Super Bowl.

Once upon a time, however, the New England Patriots quarterback was a bit more care-free during the lead-up to the Big Game.

During his weekly appearance on WEEI’s “Mut & Callahan”, Brady was asked whether he’d ever done anything “dumb” or irresponsible during Super Bowl week. And, unsurprisingly, his one slip-up occurred 17 years ago before Super Bowl XXXVI, his first Super Bowl.

“I went to this event on the Friday night before the game. It was a Super Bowl party,” Brady said Monday morning. “That was pretty stupid. I got asked to do it, and said, ‘This will be great!’ I did it. I would never do anything like that again. I was definitely out at 9:30 p.m. or 10 p.m. on Friday night. This Friday night, I’ll probably be asleep by 8:30 p.m.”

Oh, that Tom Brady. He’s a wild one.

Brady and the Patriots will look to win their sixth Super Bowl when they take on the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night in Atlanta.
