New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is known as a fun-loving guy and a party animal, which is one reason why he totaled up a $9,000 tab at a nightclub in Las Vegas.

According to Buzzfeed.com, Gronkowski racked up a receipt for $9,600 at the XS Nighclub in Las Vegas, which was the same place where he was video taped earlier this month body slamming a friend in a wrestling move while nursing a broken arm. The tab shows how generous the tight end is, as he gave gratuity of $1,400.

The check was from Super Bowl Sunday and features a number of drinks, including Ciroc, Crown Royal, Grey Goose and much more. The Goose cost the tight end $525, while he also bought many cans of Red Bull for his group.

The tight end recently signed a six-year, $54 million contract with the Patriots, but missed part of the season and the playoffs after breaking his forearm and then reaggrivating the injury.

He has been spotted out partying many times in the past, including when he was in a bar in New Orleans with LSU students as well as last year when he posted a picture with a porn star.

Earlier in the month, TMZ caught Gronkowski on video in a Las Vegas nightclub pulling a body slam wrestling move on one of his friends, landing on the broken forearm he suffered in the playoffs. He stood up afterwards and motioned he was okay, but it is likely head coach Bill Belichick did not like it.

Last year Gronkowksi had an ankle injury in the Super Bowl and was seen later that night dancing in a club and celebrating. The Patriots lost to the Ravens in the AFC Championship game without the tight end, as Gronkowski was originally hurt in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins and returned for the playoffs against the Houston Texans.

Gronkowski was hurt on a deep pass after catching a ball out of bounds in the first quarter and landing on his left arm, which had already been broken earlier in the season, forcing the tight end to miss time. Gronkowski went to the locker room and could be seen on television dealing with the pain.
