With Tom Brady now set to spend lots of time in Las Vegas, UFC president Dana White has some big plans for the former NFL quarterback.
Brady has agreed to become a minority owner in the Raiders franchise, having already become part owner of the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces.
Dana White seems pretty excited by this and has told TMZ Sports he’s planning to “bro down” with the seven-time Super Bowl winner and will even pick up the tab whenever they meet up for dinner.
Brady isn’t quite there yet, though. While he and owner Mark Davis have agreed on a deal, there is still a need for the NFL to approve, with 24 owners required to vote. Of course, it is expected that the approval will go through.
Tom and Dana have been friends for years and the former QB actually owns a small part of UFC. Dana expects them to have some more fun together now that Tom should be spending a lot more time in Vegas.
“I think there’s more opportunity for us to hang out now that he’s around more in Vegas,” the UFC prez was quoted as saying. “I don’t know about working!”

The City Of Vegas Should Be Better Off With Brady Around
White also sees Brady’s involvement in the team as a huge positive for Vegas and expects both the franchise and the city to benefit from it.
“At the end of the day, Brady’s a winner,” he added. “The guy’s a winner. Winning is what he does. Having that kind of attitude and drive, and everything else he can bring to the Raiders and to this city, I couldn’t be happier about it.”
White would do well to remember that Brady is also set for a job with FOX that might affect their bro time, so he should try to get several dinners in before that kicks off.
