Patriots’ Rob Gronkowski reads ‘Gronk Erotica’
By Kris Whelan
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski reads some fan fiction called ‘Gronk Erotica.’
Just when we thought New England Patriots’ Rob Gronkowski’s media day couldn’t get any more awkward after he was forced to sing a Katy Perry song, a reporter handed him ‘Gronk Erotica’. For those of you that are unfamiliar with ‘Gronk Erotica,’ it is a sexy book featuring the tight end.
The more I see of this guy the more I like him, he takes everything with good humor. I mean, I guess you have to take some erotic fiction based on your life with good humor. I’d like to think if a stranger had chronicled my fictitious sexual activities, that I would laugh my heart out rather than be offended. I mean anytime where I’m deemed to be successful in that area, laughter usually follows.

Gronk was close to blushing when he was asked to read the erotica aloud, and he got a good laugh out of the entire situation. Super Bowl media day has been a success so far, when athletes relax and interact with fans there’s usually some funny results.
As brave as Gronk was to read it out, I have to think that the writer of the erotica was even braver. How much courage does it take to go up to a celebrity and say “so…I have some erotica, and it’s about you. Now I want you to read it…slowly”. I’m not positive that that’s how it went down, but that’s the way I hope it went.
Here’s Gronk enjoying the incident.
