Gronkowski appeared on Barstool Sports’ podcast "Pardon My Take" and was asked about the funniest plays of his career. He pointed to two moments that made him chuckle, including a curious instance against the Baltimore Ravens in which a defender pulled his pants down trying to make a tackle.

"I got two for you," Gronkowski told PFT Commenter. "One of them was versus the Steelers. I caught a first down pass up the seam and I was laying on the ground and I just decided to put my hand backward as a first down marker laying on the ground. It made me laugh when I saw it in the film room.
"And then another play was versus the Baltimore Ravens in the playoffs. I caught another seam pass and the safety came and grabbed me and the way he grabbed me it pulled down my pants and my a-- cheeks were hanging out and his face was like right against my a-- cheeks and my actual a-- was showing in the game.… His face was right against it, man. It’s great, man."
