American Airlines did respond to May’s tweet, either with ambivalence, misunderstanding or a dry sense of righteousness. 

No word yet on whether Gronkowski will actually arrive in Boston on time. If only he knew a billionaire magnate who might be able to charter him a flight home.

Oh, well. Hope you make it, Gronk. It won’t be much of a fiesta without you.
