MUST SEE: Tom Brady Throws Lombardi Trophy From Yacht During Bucs Championship Parade
Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers celebrated their Super Bowl LIV championship in style on Tuesday, cruising down Tampa’s Hillsborough river in private boats as fans lined the city’s waterfront.
At one point during the parade, quarterback Tom Brady attempted perhaps the most risky pass of his professional career.
Brady took it upon himself to try and throw the actual (not a replica) Lombardi trophy from the back of his yacht to teammate Mike Evans’ boat lined up right behind his.
At one point before the toss, his teammates almost didn’t believe he was going to make the throw.
They were very wrong but thankfully (we think) prepared to make the catch.
Check out Brady’s dramatic trophy pass from a few different angles courtesy of all the social media posts below.

The trophy was hauled in by tight end Cameron Brate, saving the trophy (and Bucs owner Bryan Glazers wallet).
Brate said the following about his catch after the parade.
“ That was amazing. He pointed it at me. We talked about it earlier. It was a great throw. I mean, what do you expect from Tom Brady. A great throw.” https://t.co/Iw9jQjmAps

Leave it to the G.O.A.T. to get away with and complete a pass like that one.
