Rob Gronkowski was seen smashing home runs with a bread loaf and marshmallows while at a grocery store.
You did not misread that.
The five-time Pro Bowler was recently spotted in a Sprouts Farmers Markert where he was recorded hitting a marshmallow into a sea of onlookers. Gronk is so loved that even MLB shared him on their various social media accounts.
“POV: You go to the store to get milk and Gronk is in produce crushing dingers.”
In the video, Gronk is using a loaf of bread as a bat.
While there still may be rumors of Gronk coming back to the league, he is certainly enjoying life while retired and in a relationship with model Camille Kostek. A few days ago, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit alum reflected on her nearly decade-long romance with the former Bucs tight end which began during their time together in New England.

“9 years ago today we were volunteering at the @patriots Thanksgiving in a Basket event with @goodwillboston where Rob slipped me his number through @jwiggs85 [former NFL tight end Jermaine Wiggins],” Kostek shared.
Kostek, then a Patriots cheerleader, revealed she had to break the rules in order to connect with Gronkowski. Cheerleaders were not allowed to date players, per NFL rules.
“Yes I broke the @patriotscheerleaders rules at the time and called him up… but it was worth it,” she continued.
Kostek supported Gronkowski throughout his NFL career, which included nine seasons with the Patriots and two with the Buccaneers. The five-time Pro Bowler announced his second NFL retirement in June and returned to Fox Sports in October for its NFL pregame shows.
If his career is indeed one, he wraps it up with 621 receptions for 9,286 yards and 92 touchdowns.
