Rob Gronkowski is a man who loves to play football and party all the time. Besides those two things, he loves making “69” jokes. It’s what he does.
During media day in Atlanta, it was announced that Tom Brady stated that there was a “zero” percent chance that he would be retiring after Super Bowl. That, of course, lead to a reporter asking the New England Patriots tight end on whether he had any plans to retire following Super Bowl 53.
In true Gronk fashion, he pointed to a female reporter and said this:
“You guys know what my favorite number,” said Gronk. “You know what I’m talking about. She knows what I’m talking about [pointing to a reporter]. Ask her, that’s the answer.”
Even when Gronk was asked a question about involving a 1st grader, he can’t help but to make a “69” joke:
Chris Carlin of WFAN in New York brought attention to the remark on the Carlin, Maggie and Bart show, “He’s obviously making a stupid 69 joke, but you’re going to point to a female reporter in that setting and say ‘ask her?’ I don’t care who it is. Do whatever you want, dude. Just don’t be disrespectful in that setting.”

Co-host Maggie Gray agreed, “That one is a crossing the line. I think there has been a pass that’s been given to Rob Gronkowski for a really long time. I think part of the pass that he gets comes with the fact he is doing this and really doesn’t have anything in his past or in his private life that would indicate he actually has an issue. It just seems like an act.”
Because of that, he was ripped on Twitter:
