Tom Brady Was welcomed in the Indy 500 by tunes and hoots, but the retired star of the NFL took the reception in stride while he greeted the participants during a pre-couring ceremony.
Largely considered to be the goat (the largest of all time) by most NFL fans, Brady remains a controversial figure among the supporters of the Indianapolis colts, who clearly have not forgotten the long -standing rivalry between the colts and the old Brady team, the New England Patriots.

The Colts and the Patriots share one of the most intense rivalries of professional football, after having faced the 2014 AFC championship match – an event now sadly famous for the “Deflategate” scandal. During this match, Brady was accused of having football balls to make them easier to throw.

Fans of the colts have still not forgiven Brady, who was suspended for four games in 2016 after the NFL concluded that it was “generally aware” of the program to deflate the football balls during the match.
Now, a part of the Fox Sports NFL broadcasting team, Brady was not shaking by the cold reception. The father of three 47-year-olds kept his composure, smiling and waving at the crowd.
