Partisan crowd boos Tom Brady at Super Bowl
It sounds like a partisan crowd at Super Bowl LLI, and not necessarily one that favors the New England Patriots.
The evidence? Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was heartily booed by the fans at U.S. Bank Stadium during warmups on Sunday.
Brady just ran into the field and was roundly booed. Seems like a decidedly Phily crowd – no surprise.

If you need more evidence of the pro-Eagles tilt of the crowd, the Brian Westbrook-led rendition of “Fly Eagles Fly” had the sound of a home game.

Eagles fans had already been making their presence felt all week in Minneapolis. The fact that the crowd clearly favors them isn’t a huge surprise.
