Rob Gronkowski ditched multiple shirts, caught Tide Pods, and drank wine in the Patriots’ parade
Wardrobe changes were made.
Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski says he hasn’t made a decision about his NFL future. But if Super Bowl LIII really was his final game, he made sure to savor Tuesday’s celebratory parade to the fullest extent.
Perched atop a duck boat along with other team tight ends and family members, Gronkowski began the festivities wearing a Patriots poncho.

Also, Gronkowski (a Tide spokesperson) caught a box of Tide PODS.
Someone threw #Gronk a box of @TideNFL Pods and he made a sweet one-handed catch.

If Gronkowski does retire from football, a lasting image might prove to be making one-handed catches at the parade after winning another Super Bowl.
