42-year-old Tampa Bay Bucs quarterback Tom Brady arrived at Raymond James Stadium three hours before the start of Sunday’s Super Bowl and people on the Internet were annoyed with his Covid-19 mask etiquette.
As Brady was filmed walking into the stadium, many noticed Brady was the only person around him not wearing a mask.

Literally everyone else around him is wearing a mask. But the most influential person at the #SuperBowl can’t even be bothered to set an important example, much less protect others around him. 🚮 https://t.co/ov9GfhEbz8

Why’s he the only one not wearing a mask? Does he think he’s above everyone else?

I don’t know, but I can tell you what he’s NOT listening to: medical experts and the NFL on wearing a mask https://t.co/BU5Av8kXk9

Brady received similar criticism following the NFC championship game when he was the only Bucs player not wearing a mask during the team’s celebration.
Tom Brady is the only Bucs player not wearing a mask?
