It started with a tweet. Way back in the beginning of May, Rob Gronkowski tweeted that he wanted to give away some of his size-16 cleats and shoes.
He's a nice dude, that Rob Gronkowski guy.
If you are a high school football player and size 16 shoot me a mention and I'll ship ya some sick @nike cleats and shoes!

Then, after getting a reply from a high school tight end who wears size 16, Gronk actually followed up on his offer.

Those look like some pretty slick shoes, right?

Turns out, they're a bit better than advertised.
Secretly the best thing to come of this is Gronk's quote that he wrote on the signed shoes #StayHyped #GetChicks pic.twitter.com/p06C409oXU

For the record, that's "Stay hyped! Get chicks!"
