New England Patriots fans have certainly not been pleased with the NFL’s decision to punish Tom Brady and the Pats over Deflate-Gate and one merry troupe of Brady-ites decided to do something about it.
On Tuesday, a small batch of Pats fans made their way to the NFL’s New York City offices. They came fully equipped with Tom Brady jerseys and imaginative signs.

They then proceeded to stage a protest in the NFL’s very own lobby.

Sadly, our intrepid heroes and believers in the power of deflated footballs Tom Brady were promptly escorted out by police. The protest on behalf of the multi-millionaire quarterback with a supermodel wife was over before it even really began.

Patriots fans are literally getting themselves arrested over Deflate-Gate. Somehow, this scandal is the surreal gift that keeps on giving.
