Patriots' fans prove how excited they are for Tom Brady's return to New England

The moment the football community has been waiting for is finally upon us. Tom Brady will be back at Gilette Stadium in an emotional day when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the New England Patriots in Week 4 of the 2021 NFL regular season.

The legendary quarterbackwill face his former team for the first time since parting ways with them in 2020, when he moved to Florida and won his seventh Super Bowl ring. Previously, he cemented a legacy in Foxborough.

Under Bill Belichick, Brady thrived and dominated in the league for years until he decided it was time to move on. He will be back in New England in a different uniform but fans are extremely excited to welcome back their idol.

As soon as the 2021 NFL calendar was released, all the eyes were immediately on this Week 4 game. The moment has finally come, Brady will be facing the Patriots for the first time ever and no one wants to miss it.

In case you were wondering how fans in Foxborough are taking this weekend's matchup, you shouldn't be surprised that they can't wait for the kick-off. A report from TickPick suggests this will be the Patriots' most expensive ticket so far and the league's priciest ticket of the season.

The average purchase price is $1,236, breaking the record from the Patriots vs. Chiefs game in 2017 ($689). It will also be a 195% more expensive than the second priciest game this week (Packers vs. Steelers $419).

Furthermore, Sunday night's game will be a 305% more expensive than all other Patriots' home games this season, where the average purchase price was $312. Meanwhile, the Bucs' get-in for this match is $385, a 1,733% higher than their next away game at Philadelphia Eagles ($21).

New England will never forget what Tom Brady did during a wonderful, 20-year stint at the helm of the Patriots offense. He will be back in Foxborough after a long time and fans are willing to spend whatever it takes to welcome him back, regardless if he is dressed in a different uniform.
