New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is no stranger to appearing in the Super Bowl. But his fashion choice for arriving at Sunday’s Super Bowl LII at the U.S. Bank Stadium set him up for some social media grief.
Brady arrived wearing a light grey trenchcoat, which people quickly compared to Inspector Gadget, someone from the Little Rascals or a James Bond villian.

Many #Thunder players are blaming today’s loss to the #Lakers on the fact that Russell Westbrook was “up all night” picking Tom Brady’s outfit for the Superbowl. “I told him to go shirtless under the coat” Russ told us, “but he wouldn’t listen” pic.twitter.com/wzAfaCDryo
