Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen caused quite a splash at Community Boating Inc. on Beacon Hill the other day when the New England Patriots QB/QT flipped his rented kayak and had to be fished out of the Charles River!
“They got wet,” said Someone Who Was There. “But they seemed to have a great time.”
According to our spies, Tom and Gi rented a pair of kayaks from the sailing club behind the Hatch Shell and the Community Boating bunch got them loaded in and on their way. At some point, however, Tom tipped over and couldn’t get back in the boat!
“He had to be rescued,” said our spy. “The launch guy went out and got him and got him back in the kayak. He’s been bragging about it ever since. He’s telling everyone he rescued Tom Brady.”
Well, he did!
“It was more embarrassment than real danger,” said Deep, er, River.
A spokesman for Community Boating confirmed that the couple had rented kayaks on Sunday but declined to provide any more deets.
Pats spokesguy Stacey James said he hadn’t heard about Tom’s kayak sack.
“He looked fine at the golf tournament,” he added.
Brady and his teammates teed off at the annual New England Patriots Charitable Foundation Golf Tournament at The International in Bolton yesterday.
Although boating apparently isn’t his sport, Tom does just fine on dry land. He came in second in the longest-drive competition yesterday with a 281-yarder. Tedy Bruschi beat him with a 287-yard bomb.
