Six Super Bowl rings may get you special treatment in a lot of places but former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady learned Monday that it won't get you anything when you're caught working out in a park that is closed to the public due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Tampa Mayor Jane Castor said during a news briefing Monday that the new Buccaneers quarterback was spotted working out by himself at a park downtown by staff patrol. The staffer went over to tell him he had to leave and she recognized the man to be the 42-year-old Brady.
โHe's been sighted,โ Castor said.
The City of Tampa tweeted from its page Monday, โSorry @TomBrady! Our @tampaparksrec team canโt wait to welcome you and our entire community back with even bigger smiles โ until then, stay safe and stay home as much as you can to help flatten the curve."
