Rob Gronkowski appears to be drinking from a beer bong (Picture)

Patriots star tight end Rob Gronkowski spent some time vacationing recently. Plenty of pictures of Gronk partying have hit the web, and he had so much fun he says he and his brothers missed their flight home. In case you were doubting how much fun he was having — keep in mind he’s wearing a boot to recover from ankle surgery — the above picture of him hitting a beer bong seems to clear things up.

That picture was uploaded to the Twitter account of Kelly Jauch without any relevant commentary, though we believe the picture was snapped in South Padre Island, Texas. We believe the technical term for what Gronk is drinking out of is a “funnel,” but nobody actually calls it that. And nobody drinks anything other than alcohol — particularly beer — from one of those things.

Between this picture and the shirtless dancing pics, Gronk isn’t doing his public image any favors this offseason. Then again, if he only cares about how younger fans view him, then between this and the pictures with adult star Bibi Jones, he’s only enhancing his legendary status.
