Former NFL star Tom Brady recently made an appearance at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Brady caught up with Jimmie Johnson, a seven-time NASCAR champion. While Brady was spending time with Johnson, both legends cracked jokes and had memorable moments.
Brady and Johnson celebrated the 109th Indianapolis 500. The former NFL QB was prepared to ride the fastest seat in sports in a ceremonial lap. Brady is an analyst on FOX Sports, and he made a remark during the coverage for the run-up to the Indianapolis 500 race. While he geared up to drive, Brady commented that it might not sit well with some NFL fans.
*“I’m sure a lot of the Indianapolis Colts fans would want to see me crash at some point here today,*”Tom Brady said.
There’s no surprise that Colts fans are not a huge fan of Brady. Back in 2015, Brady and the New England Patriots delivered a 45-7 blow to the Colts in the AFC Championship game. Brady played a huge part is handing eliminating the Colts from playing in the Super Bowl.
It turns out that Brady was true after all since Indianapolis Colts supporters welcomed him with a lot of boos. Despite the boos, the former star waved out to the audience with a thumbs-up sign.
