Florida woman demands Tom Brady apologize for Lombardi Trophy toss.
Drunk Tom Brady is the gift that keeps on giving and now there’s a whole new element of hilarity to throw (pun intended) into the mix. Apparently, there’s a woman in Florida who is pretty mad he threw the Lombardi Trophy from his boat into the arms of someone in another boat.
The woman, Lorraine Grohs, is the daughter of Greg Grohs who was the designer behind the first Vince Lombardi Trophy. He worked for Tiffany and Company as a silversmith for nearly 30 years.
“It just upset me that this trophy was disgraced and disrespected by being thrown as if it was a real football,” said Grohs (h/t Fox4Now). “I have a big history of this trophy being made by my father and it’s such an honor and I know all the craftsmen that made it when my dad was there also at Tiffany’s and it takes a lot of hard work.”
She wants Tom Brady to apologize for the toss
And now she wants Brady to issue an apology.
“I personally would like an apology, not just to me and my family and the other silversmiths but to the fans, all the football fans the other team players.”
Grohs claims she lost sleep after the video went viral due to seeing her father’s hard work being disrespected.
“I’ve seen this trophy being made at the factory at Tiffany’s and it’s a beautiful trophy. My father had to chisel the seams, he had to chisel the seams by hand. There is a newspaper article that shows him working on that trophy. The ball is hand-formed and the base is as well.”
We’re thinking maybe she shouldn’t be holding her breath for that apology.
