Tom Brady loses a friendly football game in the Hamptons ahead of Michael Rubin’s Fourth of July white party

Tom Brady didn’t bring his A-game to the Hamptons this year.

We’re told the legendary ex-New England Patriots quarterback, 46, lost a friendly game of beach football ahead of Michael Rubin’s annual Fourth of July party on Thursday.

While Brady was the captain of one team, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud headed the other.

“Brady’s team lost 5-4 to CJ’s team,” an insider exclusively tells Page Six of the retired Super Bowl champ’s beach defeat.

“It was a little pre-white party bbq and football game on beach,” the source adds. Players included Rubin, Travis Scott, Quavo, Odell Beckham Jr., Damar Hamlin, Micah Parsons and others.

The Fanatics founder, 51, shared a montage of the match on his Instagram Thursday, starting with a video of the two quarterbacks picking their team.

“We’ve got all kinds of skill level over here,” Brady joked in the clip.

Although the game was all in good fun, it seemed to get competitive between the group as they worked up a sweat on the beach.

Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin, who survived a cardiac arrest mid-game in January 2023, seemingly sealed Stroud’s team victory after he intercepted a pass from Brady.

“Pre White Party mini camp… getting our reps in and our body right 😂 let’s go,” Rubin captioned the video.

The CEO will welcome 350 of the biggest names in sports and entertainment to his Hamptons home on Thursday for his annual white party, which is largely considered the hottest ticket of the summer. 

While Rubin has kept the exclusive guest list close to the vest this year, past attendees included the Kardashians, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Drake and more.

Page Six was previously told that Rubin was “getting hundreds of calls a day” from people asking to attend.

We’re told he even “had two separate offers of $1 million donations” for an invite — which he declined.

“Numerous business titans, billionaires, artists and athletes have been told there’s no room for them as they’re sticking to the 350 people,” the insider told us last month.

Those lucky enough to snag a spot on the guest list were sent custom Travis Scott x George Condo sneakers, which are estimated to be worth up to $50,000.

The all-white “Cactus Jack AJ 1 Lows” were numbered, with each guest’s name inscribed on the insole.

The limited-edition kicks arrived in white suitcases with a note that read: “Don’t puke on these! Not for resale… I know who you are.”

Before the official invitations were delivered, Rubin, once again, teamed up with Condo to send each partygoer a custom, framed illustration.
