Photo Of Rob Gronkowski Cuddling With A Goat Goes Viral
Just two days after the New England Patriots beat the Los Angeles Rams, 13-3, and won their sixth Lombardi Trophy, they returned to Boston to officially celebrate with family, friends and fans. One of the stars of the parade was, of course, Rob Gronkowski.
He celebrated in his own style:

Pretty much everyone knew that, at some point, Gronk’s shirt would be gone. Here’s what Brady said on a radio interview Tuesday:
Brady on @MutCallahan says he told Gronk, “If you or Julian’s shirt isn’t off by the second block, I’ll be disappointed.”

And of course, it didn’t take long for that to happen:

And soon enough, he was wearing a police vest:

But the most memorable moment was definitely when Gronkowski got a stuffed goat toy with a Patriots jersey and started cuddling it. It was epic!
Take a look:

Gronk surely has a lot of reasons to celebrate. In addition to his team being the champions, Rob Gronkowski set a new record on Sunday – he now has the most catches by a tight end in Super Bowl history.
The New England Patriots tight end brought in a 19-yard reception from Tom Brady midway through the first quarter, marking his 18th career catch in the Super Bowl, the most by any tight end in NFL history.
We’re proud of you, Gronk!
