They were in Western New York. Doesn’t cost much for a spread like that.

Here’s the original article: https://www.esquire.com/sports/interviews/a29000/gronkowski-family-athletes-0614/

They were going through[b]20 ga llons of milk a week[/b].[/quote]

That seems like a lot -- 4 gallons per week for each boy?  That's almost 10 servings of milk a day per boy.  I had five brothers and my parents used to buy them a gallon or two a week.  They each had their own bottle so one didn't chug it all the first day.  If they were really going through 20 gallons of milk a week, they were feeling all the neighborhood boys.

But I can EASILY see spending $600 a week feeing 5 boys even in the 80s or 90s, particularly if you are not worried about coupon cutting or budgeting (ie., buying cheap cuts of meat, avoiding premade frozen stuff which is expensive, etc.)[/quote]

My brother (who's 6 ft 4) and my H drank a gallon a day as teens. [/quote]
