BEST JOKES AND CRAZIEST MOMENTS FROM TOM BRADY'S NETFLIX ROAST

It was a long night for Tom Brady at his live Netflix comedy roast, as it was for the rest of us watching from home, per Variety.

Starting with a bloody OJ Simpson jersey and ending with Tom Brady smashing an iPhone on stage, the Netflix live event, "The Greatest Roast of All-Time: Tom Brady," honored the seven-time Super Bowl champion and modern-day legend as he faced his biggest challenge yet: being roasted by comedians and his former NFL teammates.

At times hilarious and at others a bit cringe-worthy, the unedited live event was a lengthy affair that made one truly appreciate the editors of the Comedy Central Roasts. Their task was to condense the content into a concise, entertaining 60-minute presentation. Nonetheless, the joke of the night came from the GOAT when addressing Kim Kardashian and referencing her ex-husband Kanye West: "I know Kim was terrified to be here tonight. Not because of this, but because her kids are at home with their dad."

When Kardashian took the stage to perform a toast to Brady, she was met with an onslaught of audible boos, with Hart coming to her aid.

Part of Netflix Is a Joke Fest, "Greatest Roasts of All Time: Tom Brady" featured the former quarterback, known for his 20 seasons with the New England Patriots and three with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, taking humorous jabs from some of the biggest names in comedy. Hosted by Kevin Hart and Roastmaster Jeff Ross, the event included former teammates Julian Edelman, Rob Gronkowski, and Drew Bledsoe, as well as stand-up comics Tom Segura, Nikki Glaser, Andrew Schulz, Bert Kreischer, Tony Hinchcliffe, Sam Jay, and more.

"We're here to roast the greatest quarterback of all time," Hart quipped. "Oh, wait, Joe Montana's here?"

A montage of Brady's achievements, starting from his days at the University of Michigan and highlighting his journey to becoming a three-time NFL MVP, set the stage for the evening.

Brady made a grand entrance onto a stage surrounded by his former teammates, exclaiming to the crowd, "Are you guys ready? It's game time. Let's go!"

VIP tables, occupied by Chelsea Handler, Jim Gaffigan, Shane Gillis, and Netflix executives Ted Sarandos and Bela Bajaria, encircled the stage, adding to the star-studded atmosphere of the event.

Former teammate Gronk took the spotlight with the most peculiar moments of the night, delivering a sometimes incoherent barrage of jokes that culminated in smashing a glass on the stage, causing it to shatter and send shards flying onto nearby tables.
