Gronk gets emotional during Patriots Hall of Fame induction: ‘Patriot for life’

Rob Gronkowski was put on this earth to do two things, to play football and to make people feel happy. It was an honor and privilege to play here in front of the greatest fans on earth. That's you guys. Thank you. A perfect Saturday here in Foxborough. The greatest that the Patriots have to offer all on full display, all to celebrate Rob Gronkowski. What does it mean to you to have Tommy Yeah, it meant everything, and it just worked out perfectly to be able to have the game that we're calling here tomorrow. It just meant a lot, man, to myself, to my family, and to the fans, I'm sure, as well. Like everyone up here said, Rob made everybody better on the field. Practices were harder than the games, so thank you. Congratulations. We love you. Rob gave his body for this team. Oh, I still feel it. Every single person standing here, they're standing right here for one reason, because they absolutely love you. I owe so much to all of you that tonight I'll drink a hefty fat Boston Lager beer, cheersing to y'all. Yo soy fiesta, baby. The Hall of Fame is reserved for the greatest patriots of all time. And now, Rob Gronkowski is where he belongs. For your local station, Boston 25 News, I'm Butch Stearns.
