Rob Gronkowski tells a hilarious story of Tom Brady at The Kentucky Derby

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski was asked to recall a funny memory of Tom Brady as payback for the quarterback’s silly impression of Gronk. And the tight end delivered with a funny memory of Brady from their days playing for the New England Patriots.

“I would just say going to a Kentucky Derby and seeing him take a shot and, like, just seeing his face after … in disgust like, ‘I’m putting this alcohol in my body?’” Gronkowski told reporters. “Takes a shot and he’s like, ‘Ohhh, how am I gonna throw next week?!’”

What kind of shot?

“I think Fireball,” he said.

Brady is an extremely disciplined eater, and though he occasionally drinks a glass of wine with dinner, he doesn’t seem like the type that rips Fireball shots on every weekend.
