Rob Gronkowski's world tour continues as he crashes Sean Spicer's White House media briefing
From WrestleMania to “stealing” Tom Brady’s jersey at Fenway Park to the White House press briefing, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is showing up everywhere this offseason.
The latest episode in the Gronk chronicles came on Wednesday as the Patriots visited President Donald Trump at the White House. Gronkowski surprised White House press secretary Sean Spicer during his daily press briefing.
Spicer is a noted Patriots fan.

Only Gronk could get away with that, although for a moment Spicer didn’t seem to be enjoying it. It’s not like White House guests are supposed to come into press briefings through the side door once it has started.

But it’s all in the day of the life of Gronk. The only question is where he’ll show up next.
