TOM BRADY racked up an eye-watering bar bill during a surprise visit to a Birmingham pub.
The NFL legend recently became a minority owner in Birmingham City and stunned Blues fans by visiting a pub in Small Heath last weekend.
Brady, 46, attended the Royal George Hotel along with Blues chairman Tom Wagner and CFO Gary Cook.
The seven-time Super Bowl winner was mobbed by fans and took scores of selfies before treating them all to a drink.
Brady forked out £150 on the hefty round at the Garrison Lane boozer before leaving a whopping £400 tab behind the bar.
Brady's surprise visit stunned pub owner Antoin McGroarty, who told Birmingham Mail: "I had no idea they were coming, out of sheer coincidence I'd asked a photographer to come in for the day to take some shots.
