Brady and Gronk joined fellow former teammate Julian Edelman for a beach vacation that Tom Cruise would be proud of.

Former New England Patriots players Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski appeared to recreate a memorable scene from Top Gun: Maverick that left fans parched.

The long-awaited sequel to 1986's Top Gun starring Tom Cruise–who reprised his role as Pete "Maverick" Mitchell–featured a "Dogfight Football" scene on the beach in which the pilots in training were shirtless.


The casually provocative scene with sweaty, beefy, young pilots playing in slow-motion was an homage to the beach volleyball scene in the original film nearly 30 years ago.

The clip of twice-retired pro-footballer Tom "the GOAT" Brady playing with the boys–including fellow retirees, "Gronk" Gronkowski and Julian Edelman, was filmed and posted by Gronkowski's girlfriend, Camille Kostek.

Adding cinematographer to my resume 📽Top Gun 3 sneak peek 🏈😂

In the movie, Maverick explained Dogfight Football was an opportunity for the pilots to sharpen their offense and defense skills.

But for moviegoers, the scene's takeaway was more about the gratuitous shot of Miles Teller and Glen Powell with their shirts off.

The NFL retiree's beachside rough and rumble took place during a vacation in the Bahamas.

Kostek was commended for capturing the muscly men in their element.

The TikTok video's accompanying song was the same one used in the Maverick called "I Ain't Worried" by OneRepublic.

This TikToker seemed to be a devoted fan of the earworm, but for a different reason.

It was the kind of spring break fever people were ready for.

Soon, there was a demand to have the hunky players come out of retirement–which would be nothing new for our favorite GOAT.

Kostek and her beau also shared other highlights from their vacation.


Brady also posted an Instagram photo dump featuring him in swimwear from his Brady brand apparel line.

For reference, here is the scene that inspired the former NFL players' version of Dogfight Football.

Anti-Trump Stickers Keep Getting Spotted On Gas Pumps—And They're Absolutely Brutal

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's decision to join Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in attacking the country of Iran directly caused gas prices in the United States to soar and even Trump's MAGA minions aren't happy about it.

Many who are turning their back on Trump have cited the POTUS's negative impact on their cost of living and the influence Netanyahu, himself under investigation by his own country for corruption, has over the Trump administration.

Cloud, who boasts nearly 58,000 followers on Instagram, said he actually used to go "door-to-door" stumping for "one of [President Donald] Trump's closest friends in Congress, adding that he "used to say, 'I think, therefore I am conservative.'"

Trump's AG Sets Off A Firestorm With Claim That Americans 'Want Their Tax Dollars Spent On' Trump's $1.8 Billion Slush Fund

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is facing heavy criticism after claiming that Americans "want their tax dollars spent on things like" President Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund that may go to his allies and those who participated in the January 6 insurrection.

The Justice Department said last week it was creating the fund as part of a deal in which Trump agreed to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. But despite a press release, memo, and a newly-released settlement agreement, many details about the program remain unclear.

Getting a new pet is a big commitment, and when you decide to take the plunge, you should commit to keeping them for their full lifetime.

But if you're going to get an animal that you have no prior experience with, you also have to commit to doing your research so you can care for them properly. While getting advice from a fellow pet owner is helpful, it's always good to double-check their facts.
