Rob Gronkowski's party boat caused a sea of trouble for a pair of reporters on Twitter.
The Patriots tight end ran a booze cruise from Feb. 19-22, but it's doubtful he expected it to cause a Twitter war between two professionals.
Camille Kostek May Be Part Of Rob Gronkowski's Life Still
Fox Sports reporter Julie Stewart-Binks created an uproar after she had Gronkowski provide a lap dance for her live on the air on Feb. 4. The four-time Pro Bowler had previously opened up about a time he accidentally became a male stripper in an appearance on "Conan," and Stewart-Binks wanted a little taste of how it went. She was plastered with negative reactions after the segment.
One of the people who railed against the Fox Sports reporter for her actions was ESPNW reporter Sarah Spain.
Rob Gronkowski Reveals Stripper Past
Spain spent a couple of days on Gronkowski's party boat and wrote a story about her tales from the sea, which didn't sit well at all with Stewart-Binks. The Fox Sports reporter called her right out on Twitter.

3 weeks ago you publicly ridicule me- now, you glorify your Gronk-boating. Wanna talk double standards? Let's go. https://t.co/4p8pJeJW7b — Julie Stewart-Binks (@JSB_FOX) February 25, 2016
Spain wasn't ready to sit back and take the heat from Stewart-Binks, and she fired right back:
Wait wait wait. First, I never ridiculed. I said I didn't think dance was a good idea as part of a larger discussion https://t.co/a0CNk8s4Oh

2nd, did you read the post or listen to any radio about how Gronk Boat was harmless fun? The 2 things are unrelated. https://t.co/a0CNk8s4Oh — Sarah Spain (@SarahSpain) February 25, 2016
I'm not sure where this is coming from, but I don't do fabricated Twitter fights to "go viral." Have a good night. https://t.co/a0CNk8s4Oh

Gronkowski certainly knows how to drum up some drama, even if he really didn't have much to do with it in the first place. All he did was provide a lap dance upon request and run a booze cruise for people to have fun -- which ended up including an ESPN reporter.
