Rob Gronkowski really is a man of the people.
The New England Patriots tight end was part of the team’s victory parade on Tuesday despite not playing in any of the team’s playoff games because he was recovering from a back surgery he underwent in December. Gronk said that he wasn’t planning on partying during the parade, but the demands from the fans changed his mind:
Gronk doesn't party for himself.

And party he did.
Gronk danced:

Took his shirt off and double-fisted beers:

And he savagely opened a beer can with his teeth:

Anything less from Gronk would have felt disappointing.
