While Halloween is a spectacle for most people to bring out their creative sides, Tom Brady has a different approach to the spooky holiday. After being all over the news for his divorce and underwhelming performances, Brady chose to stay under the radar this year. However, he does showcase that he is a father first and a football player later. The legendary quarterback took to the Tampa Bay neighborhood to enjoy an evening of Trick or treating with his kids.

Brady has two kids from his ex-wife Gisele, Benjamin,12, and Vivian,9. He also has a child from his earlier wife, Bridget Moynahan. They have a son, Jack, who is 15. While Jack may have grown out of the trick-or-treating festivities, his other two kids are very much at the peak of their Halloween career.

Tom Brady goes trick or treating

On his podcast with Jim Gray and Larry Fitzgerald, Brady mentioned his plans of celebrating the holiday with his kids. Brady happens to live in a very lively block of Tampa, which makes it even more of a grand affair, as there are a lot of treats up for grabs for the kids. The father of three showed anticipation for his time with the kids as he mentioned, “So, the kids are super excited, and should be a really fun night for us”. Something he is definitely in need of amid family turmoil.

When asked about his preparations for the big day, he said he would prefer to go unnoticed. He went on to say, “So, hopefully, I’m somewhat anonymous tonight so the kids can really enjoy themselves. It could get a little hectic, and if it does, then I’ll come back home. But I’m hoping I can be just another dad out there on the street tonight in a cool costume.”

 While Brady’s role as a father and family man has been in question lately, this family-first approach should be rewarding for the Buccaneers’ Quarterback.

Halloween in the NFL

Game Week 8 not only marked the last game week of October but also marked the beginning of the festive season. Halloween starts the fireworks for the season, with Thanksgiving just around the corner and Christmas lurking in the back. In full festive spirit, athletes brought out their A-game as they made their pre-game appearances. 

Minnesota Vikings‘, Adam Thielen, dressed up as Pennywise as he walked in before their game against the Cardinals. In an ‘A for effort’ showing, The Bears duo, Jake Tonges, and Chase Allen dressed as Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy. They had a more friendly approach. Maybe a meaner look would have helped them scare off the Cowboys to whom they received a thumping loss. KhaDarel Hodge didn’t miss a single element as he brought out his detailed look of the Joker from Next Friday. Finally, the king of Halloween didn’t fail to surprise as usual. Myles Garrett’s immaculate imitation of Vecna was the highlight of Game Week 8. The stranger things villain look-alike was on song as the Browns defeated the Bengals comfortably in their Halloween Night clash.
