Rob Gronkowski purchases stake in Gronkowski horse

The New England Patriots tight end has purchased a minority stake in a thoroughbred that he shares at least one thing in common with -- his name. The five-time All-Pro now holds a minority stake in Gronkowski (the horse) just weeks before the three-year-old colt is scheduled to run in the Kentucky Derby, according to the Wall Street Journal. Gronkowski's handlers (again, the horse) used the name since the horse's "big and strong" 6-foot-5 frame reminds them of the Patriots star.

And GRONK seems excited:

Knowing Gronk he probably misheard "horse"

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

Knowing Gronk he probably misheard "horse"

Probably more like, "Do you know what Gronk and I have in common, besides the name?"

i'm betting his stake is a 6.9% share.

Horse has a legit shot at winning- as long as Gronk ain't riding him.

I can predict with 99.99999969% certainty that GRONK will not be riding Gronkowski.

Somewhere here there is a cryptic, hidden message that will lead to much fodder for discussion for the Sports Talk Radio clowns..

He can ride him to and from the stadium for all I care, as long as he shows up on Sundays.

Beginning to believe that his antics may provide him an opportunity to ride into another stadium, where they love "bands".. Hard Rock?? Soldier Field??

 

[SammyBlueCat]

The horse is injured

gronk got involved and the horse immedietly is not longer in the next race. I find that very funny.
