place of birth

edit

This article refers to Ronde's place of birth as Roanoke, Virginia. This is not true, and I have been repeatedly rebuffed when attempting to change it. The Barber twins were born at Montgomery Regional Hospital in what is now Blacksburg, VA. This information can be found in hundreds of places, among them:

There are sources that say Roanoke, but this is because the Barber twins grew up there and are so strongly associated with the city, which is only 40 miles away from Blacksburg —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.194.4.22 (talk) 19:04, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Tiki's place of birth is listed as Roanoake, Virginia, and Ronde's is Blacksburg. I don't know which is right, but they both need to be the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.250.50.190 (talk) 21:13, 24 February 2008 (UTC)Reply


This again? They were born in Blacksburg. This is a settled fact. See the sources above. It doesn't matter what place they are "associated with", the site lists place of birth and that is Blacksburg - Montgomery Regional Hospital. I am changing it back.

salutatorian?

edit

was he the salutatorian in his High School? - the Monday Night Football crew asked his this question on 20th November 2006 and he said that he finished somewhat lower than 2nd in his class. Someone should check this --Xorkl000 12:02, 21 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Kids' School

edit

I removed the section about where his children go to school. With so many weird people out there these days, it didn't seem like a good idea for the children's school to be out there. Please, if you're the person who added it, take a moment to think about their safety. While their father may be in the public domain, they're not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.67.90.213 (talk) 13:13, 10 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Photo

edit

Surely somebody can find a better photo! Given the stringent Wikipedia constraints on public domain rights, anything I might find would be compromised. But I hope someone has a photo in focus with his face in view! Cgmusselman (talk) 02:51, 5 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
