Rob Gronkowski's colorful off-the-field exploits are made for Instagram.

Whether it's his penchant for partying wildly, being a crazed human dancing machine or anything else that he does away from the gridiron ... he bleeds in pure entertainment value.

One problem — Gronk had never signed up for an IG account, limiting fans to follow his day-to-day activities on Twitter.

Well, that changed Tuesday afternoon, when the fun-loving New England Patriots tight end joined Instagram like only Gronk could. What does that mean?

"Rob, what are you doing for your offseason?" a man asks Gronkowski.

"I'm coming to Instagram! You ready? Weeee! Instagram, baby!" Gronk says in return, squeezing his 6 foot 6, 265-pound frame on a kiddie slide before taking a joyride.

However, that's just the beginning of what Gronk does to announce he's on the 'gram.

As his introductory IG video continues, he's doing everything from screaming at the top of his lungs over roaring airplanes at a Buffalo airport to having a rugged workout and throwing a touchdown pass to a kid wearing his Patriots jersey, demanding that the child spike the ball with authority.

The video only gets zanier as it goes on with Gronk power-walking in a pool before emerging in a bathrobe and declaring, "It's spa day, baby!" He then proceeds to get a poolside massage before the footage jumps to him getting a haircut and partying hard in a nightclub.

The clip finally ends with Gronk shadowboxing under a shower in his swimming trunks. He may have just joined IG today, but already, he has to be considered one of the most entertaining athletes on the social media outlet, period. His introductory video on IG is proof of that.

Hey, like him or not, Gronk has more than earned the right to party so hard, as evidenced by his 72 receptions, 1,176 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns to lead all tight ends last year. Gronk overpowers and punishes cornerbacks and safeties and regularly bruises linebackers, too, as an absolute nightmare against whom to defend.

With the start of the 2016 NFL season still months away, Gronk should deliver many more clips to remember on his Instagram for quite some time to come.
