Tom Brady brought the New England Patriots endless memories and six Super Bowl

trophies during his two-decade run with the team.

The Patriots made sure his induction into the franchise's Hall of Fame was a celebration unlike it had ever thrown before.

Dozens of Brady's former teammates and coaches, spanning multiple eras of Patriots history joined thousands of fans

and celebrities including Jay-Z and Bon Jovi on Wednesday night to salute Brady as the 35th person to be enshrined into the team's hall.

“Patriots nation, it’s good to be home,” Brady said.

Before Brady spoke, team owner Robert Kraft brought Brady to tears when he announced that his No.

12 would never be worn by another Patriots player.

“The No. 12 is now officially retired,” Kraft said.

Kraft also announced that a 12-foot bronze statue of Brady was

being commissioned and it would be placed outside the Patriots Hall of Fame later this year.
