Rob Gronkowski has tips for using Tinder

New England Patriots All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski has some advice for Tinder users.

If you’re single and struggling to find the right person to mingle with, you’ve come to the right place, because Rob Gronkowski has some dating advice for you.

What’s that?

You don’t think the Patriots All-Pro tight end is the best source for advice in the digital dating world?

Well, normally Gronk isn’t the best source for life advice, but the Gronk does have some sound advice for those on the Tinder app who are hoping to swipe right into your heart.

In a piece for ESPN the Magazine, Gronk was one of the several athletes asked to give their take on digital dating advice and what’s working for him. He follows a simple strategy. Just swipe right on everything!

“Patriots star Rob Gronkowski tried Tinder four years ago just for laughs, he says, “and I was matching like crazy!” I tell the “chickmagnet4life” — seriously, that was his AIM screen name — I’m not faring as well. It hits him like a bolt of lightning. “You’re not killing it?” Gronk says. “You’re not doing it right.” The tight end offers two fixes: First, make like Mozgov, “Swipe right on everything. Get the ball rolling.” Second, make like Dangerfield, “Make them laugh. Just Google ‘Tinder pickup lines.'” (Sample: You must be a dictator, cuz I have an uprising.)”

Let’s break this down further.

Gronk is telling people not to limit themselves and to consider all the fish in the sea by swiping right. Second, making them laugh is always a great strategy when trying to strike up a love connection, or at least, an intimate connection. So Gronk is 2/2 so far, but the googling of Tinder pickup lines is not going to work unless you’re Gronk himself.

Nevertheless, Gronk is still 2/3 in his Tinder tips and if his tips work for you, must make sure you send him an invite to your Tinder wedding.
