Non-Fiction Memoir
New England Patriots record-breaking tight-end Rob “Gronk”
Gronkowski offers fans a front row seat to a football
superstar’s life on and off the field.
“One of the
best tight ends the game has ever seen. Off the field, he’s
unabashedly the cruise director of the NFL.” —New York
Post
Rob “Gronk” Gronkowski holds nine
league-wide records and three Patriots franchise records.
His accomplishments include thirty-eight receiving
touchdowns in his first three seasons (thirteen more than
any other tight end in the NFL) and the 2011 record for most
touchdowns made by a tight end, with seventeen receiving and
eighteen overall. With a Super Bowl victory under his belt
and a nationwide reputation for a personality that’s “comedy
gold” (CBS Sports), he has continued to win the hearts of
fans through his fun-loving attitude.
From hamming
it up at Super Bowl Media Day, to spicing up interviews with
“Gronk-esque” dance moves, to cuddling with kittens in the
pages of ESPN The Magazine, to christening a used
party bus his ride of choice, Gronk’s good humor and playful
persona make it seem like other players are “living in black
and white, and Gronk is in color” (CBS Sports). But it’s not
all fun and games. After multiple surgeries on his forearms,
ankle, and back, Gronk tore his ACL and MCL, prematurely
ending his 2013 season (but not before scoring four
touchdowns and 592 receiving yards). His many injuries and
subsequent recoveries made his key play in Super Bowl
XLIX—which led to victory and the title of “Comeback Player
of the Year”—all the sweeter. Gronk takes fans from the
field to the locker room to the VIP room to the talk show
green room to his parents’ kitchen table—a full tour of the
world according to Gronk.
