Despite his extremely successful NFL career, Rob Gronkowski was not the most attractive person in high school, despite what his recently discovered yearbook photo suggests. His incredibly silly nature has long been known, and his yearbook photo and message indicate that it began in school.
A yearbook photo and text typically highlight how much a celebrity or athlete has changed since graduating, but Gronkowski’s illustrates how little he has changed. Gronkowski’s yearbook quote from Woodland Hills High School was uncovered by “Max Preps,” a reputable digital media platform for high school sports.
Rob Gronkowski’s humorous side
In his bio, Gronkowski listed “working out, playing sports, chicks” as his interests, which was a rather typical list of his pastimes. “Real life Stiffler from American Pie,” one person quickly compared on social media, while another asked, “Are we surprised?”
Recently, Gronkowski shared stories of his interactions with Bernard Pollard, whom he nicknamed the “Patriot killer” because of the multiple injuries he inflicted on New England Patriots players. On the “Games with Names” podcast hosted by Julian Edelman, Gronkowski shared a few of his favorite memories. Rob Gronkowski said,
“He hip-drop tackled me, Bernard Pollard, who’s kinda like the Patriot killer,” “He took out Tom’s knee. I think he messed up Welker as well. “He was a dirty player, I feel like. I landed on my ankle when I fell down and my ankle snapped. It was disappointing, but me being me, went in the locker room, ‘Shoot me up! I don’t care, I’m going back out there!’ I feel like it changed the trajectory of the game. It made my Super Bowl experience miserable as well. It was in Indianapolis.”
