The Ending Of 80 For Brady Explained

Maura isn't the only character in "80 for Brady" who finds herself a romantic interest. To get primed for the big day, the entire crew heads to the NFL Experience the day before the game, and while there Trish runs into a man she recognizes, but not because she's met him before. Dan O' Callahan (Harry Hamlin) is one of the few characters in the movie who isn't based on a real person. He's a former NFL player who's actually won a Super Bowl himself. Trish notices his Super Bowl ring, and the two of them hit it off.

Dan takes down Trish's phone number, but when he starts texting her the next day, she has some second thoughts about their potential relationship. She tells her friends that she's spent her life going in and out of relationships, and she isn't sure she's ready to head down that path again. Even though Trish's friends are encouraging her, she still keeps ignoring Dan's texts.

Eventually all the ladies run into Dan just as they're about to get kicked out of the Super Bowl for not having tickets. He saves the day and invites them all up to a skybox where they can watch the rest of the game in style. After that he and Trish get back to talking, and even though Dan doesn't show up in the final scene of the movie, there's no reason to think they didn't give their relationship a shot.
