The Patriots Brought Goats To Practice To Celebrate Tom Brady’s 40th Birthday


Tom Brady turned 40 on Thursday as the Patriots continued training camp, and it was business as usual for the future Hall of Famer on the field. While the Pats ran through practice like normal, the organization decided to jazz things up in honor of Tom for the fans in attendance at camp.

How do you celebrate your 5-time Super Bowl winning quarterback properly? By getting five goats in Patriots jerseys and bringing them to practice for fans to take pictures with, of course.


It makes sense. Patriots fans will tell you that Brady is the GOAT, especially after his fifth Super Bowl win in the improbable comeback victory over the Falcons in February, so, play into it and get five goats. The biggest disappointment is they have the goats in generic Pats jerseys. Like, if you’re going to splurge on goats for Brady’s birthday, you’d think you’d go all the way and put them in Tom’s jersey. C’mon, guys. I don’t know the logistics of making jerseys for goats, but I have to feel like this was something planned far enough in advance to have made some Brady No. 12’s for the goats.

The celebration didn’t stop there. The media on site was also treated to some avocado cupcakes in honor of Brady, who fancies himself a nutrition nut — and even sells his own nutrition plan.

So if you were curious how to properly sell a multi-millionaire quarterback’s birthday. The answer is avocado cupcakes and a petting zoo.
