Rob Gronkowski's Field Goal Sparks Controversy Over Whether He ... (OutKick)

Following Rob Gronkowski's Super Bowl 'Kick Of Destiny,' a debate ensued over whether he really missed the kick live on television.

The two videos seem to have discrepancies. First and foremost, the entire thing felt prerecorded. Even though he missed, the celebration was on because FanDuel users still won free bets. Gronkowski and his team of advisors, including Adam Vinatieri, stood by for the “okay.” And the entire production felt wonky. The promotional stunt more than served its purpose and here we are, one day later, talking about the kick.

[TV](https://www.pajiba.com/tv_reviews/) [Dustin Rowles](https://www.pajiba.com/staff/dustin-rowles-1.php) Rob Gronkowski’s attempt to kick a field goal in a promotion for the sportsbook FanDuel, mercilessly promoted during the two weeks before the game, unfolded with all the narrative tension of a call from a telemarketer. I wasn’t the only person confused, either. All I knew from watching the ad, however, was that it looked like Gronkowski had made the field goal, despite the fact the announcer had said he missed it. I wasn’t paying much attention to the ad itself during the Super Bowl, so I didn’t realize initially that the Rob Gronkowski field goal was both live and that there were actually stakes involved.
