Buccaneers’ Rob Gronkowski hilariously celebrated that his Tampa Bay team was headed to the “AFC Championship game,” despite him now being part of the NFC.

In a clip that OutKick posted on Instagram Tuesday, we see Gronkowski with fellow Buccaneers player Devon White in the locker room after Tampa Bay beat the New Orleans Saints 30-20 on Sunday. The victory in the NFL Divisional Round of the playoffs allows them to advance to the NFC Championship Game.

White then replied, “Robbie G! Robbie G!”

“We’re going to the AFC Championship game!” Rob exclaimed loudly.

Devon turned to his fellow teammate and said, “We ain’t no AFC. We’re NFC!” Laughter could also be heard in the background.

Gronk quickly corrected himself, “NFC! We’re going to the NFC Championship!
