This week, Touchdown Wire’s Ed Easton Jr. spoke to four-time Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski.
In his interview with Easton Jr., Gronkowski discussed his partnership on behalf of Bounty and reflected on his mindset as a player during Super Bowl week, focusing on the game.
“I’ve been the Bounty man for three years now, and obviously, this is going into my third year. It’s been a great partnership with them; it goes hand in hand because I’m a football player. I’m from Buffalo, and I love my wings,” said Gronkowski. “You know the famous quote: You can’t have football without wings. Also, you can’t have wings without Bounty because Bounty cleans up the mess from all the buffalo wings—sauce getting all over your face—and the quicker picker-upper comes and cleans it right on up, man. So it all goes hand in hand together, especially with the style of life I live as well. “
Gronkowski is familiar with the glitz and glamour of Super Bowl week, having navigated the festivities many times throughout his career. He opened up about his mindset as a younger player and veteran.
“My first time in the Super Bowl? Yes, you got distracted because of all the festivities going up, people wanting tickets, all the parties, and all that other good stuff as well,” Gronkowski explained. “But once you’ve experienced it, I can give you advice now. Don’t worry about that stuff. The biggest focus is the game. The only thing that matters that whole week is not the parties, you know, it’s not the talk shows or media row.
“It’s all about the game. That’s the most important thing. That’s all anyone’s going to remember if you lost the game or if you won the game. So, focus entirely on the game and what you have to do to be prepared. Get the tickets to your family, and get that all squared off before the week starts. And then focus all your time on the preparation so you’re ready to go when the kickoff gets kicked off.”
