SLIDESHOW: Gronk-Mania in Framingham

Hundreds lined the aisles of BJ's Wholesale Club Sunday to get New England Patriots Rob Gronkowski to autograph his new book for them.

Hundreds lined the aisles of BJ’s Wholesale Club Sunday to get New England Patriots player Rob Gronkowski to autograph his new book for them.

At one point, fans were lines up in more than 10 aisles inside the Whittier Street BJ’s for a chance to see and say hello to the author of It’s Good To Be Gronk. The book was published last Tuesday, July 14. His Framingham visit yesterday was one of only two in New England since the 224-page book was released.

Fans needed to purchase a book from BJ’s to get a wristband to be in line to get the autograph.
