AceShowbiz - Tom Brady was spotted at Michael Rubin's Fanatics Fest in New York City's Javits Center before the event even began. The retired Super Bowl champion was spotted playing basketball, shooting hockey pucks, hitting baseballs and punching a punching bag.
The event, which is expected to draw 100,000 attendees and feature celebrities like Mike Tyson, Derek Jeter, Kevin Durant, Ben Stiller and others, will showcase various sports challenges for fans.
Brady also appeared in a video at the event, calling out his "arch rival" Eli Manning. Attendees will have the chance to win prizes and meet their favorite athletes.
Elsewhere, in his vlog "Last Week with Tom Brady", Brady demonstrated his continued throwing ability by tossing a pass to Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin from a yacht in Italy. He jokingly declared, "I just want to make sure those young bucks in the NFL know that if I still wanted to come out of retirement, they still got something to deal with."
While Brady's comments are unlikely to lead to an actual NFL return, he will be involved in the sport as an analyst for Fox's No. 1 NFL broadcast team this season. He will make his live broadcast debut in Week 1 for the Cowboys-Browns game.
