How this DJ became Gronk’s No. 1 party guy

When he walked into Gronkowski’s offseason home for the first time, he said it like walking into a scene from the movie Boiler Room.
“It’s like the part where he goes to Ben Affleck’s huge, beautiful house and there is no furniture inside. And he asks, ‘Oh did you just move in?’ and he says, ‘No, I’ve been here 10 months.’’’
The mansion, as described by Deiana, was filled with champagne-colored marble and was sparingly furnished apart from a single, cracked flat-screen TV hanging on the wall. There was also a saltwater fish tank.
“He had a bus pull up with two sororities’ worth of girls,’’ Deiana said.
With the house full of people, Deiana began playing music. Deiana played EDM for Gordie. There was hip hop for Gronkowski’s childhood friends from Buffalo. For Rob, Deiana spun some Top 40.
“ROCKIN’ IT, FRAT PARTY STYLE!”: A SHORT STORY GEARED TO COLLEGE STUDENTS, WRITTEN BY A 30-SOMETHING AUTHOR

“Where in the fuck is this party?” asked Larry eventually, growing frustrated.
“My god, she’s beautiful!” declared Kyle, pointing to a large, all-glass house situated directly on the beach. “The fraternity house! The answer to all of our dreams!”
Within no time, Larry, Janet, and Kyle were eagerly making their way into the large Gothic-spired mansion. What they observed next absolutely amazed them, stunning them beyond belief:
Large fraternity types placing compact discs into compact disc players!
Half-naked women, their breasts jingling and jangling, perched on the shoulders of football players!
Pyramids, 15 feet high, created with only empty beer cans!
Pizza pies, half-eaten, lazily strewn across expensive leather couches!
A rock and roll band playing very loudly!
A fat man with a beard pouring vodka into a crystal punch bowl!
“Aw, spit!” exclaimed Larry. “This is the best fraternity party that I’ve ever seen!”
Kyle could only nod. He agreed, but was too shocked to say anything.
Janet, on the other hand, could not stop talking: “This is incredible, absolutely incredible. I mean, I’ve always thought fraternity parties were supposed to be good, but this … this is not good. This is excellent!”
Janet stopped talking. She looked over to Kyle, who looked over to Larry. And then, without another word, they linked their arms together and walked directly into the amazing, cacophonous fray.
