New England Patriots legend Tedy Bruschi shares what makes him feel like a champion

SEABROOK — At approximately 6:44 p.m on Wednesday, a crowd of more than 100 people rose to their feet, and started to applaud for Tedy Bruschi, who hadn't even revealed himself from the maroon colored curtain that separated the stage and the back waiting room.

The many blue, white and even some red jerseys with a big number 54 on the front and the back showed the crowd was already prepared for who was about to bless the stage.

Former New England Patriot linebacker Tedy Bruschi was asked if he remembers his first tackle in his football career during his appearance at The Brook Casino in Seabrook Wednesday, Sept. 27, 2023. Bruschi recounts a vivid memory of playing football with his father and brother and as the youngest was told to sit on the sidelines while his brothers and father played. When his father made a dash and got past his brothers, Tedy jumped up and made a tackle on his father, surprising the dad.
