Tiki Barber scores big in Huntington


“Great!”

That’s what 9-year-old Dwzia Etete of Huntington and his mother, Zeze, above, answered simultaneously last night when asked what it was like to meet former New York Giant running back Tiki Barber.

They were among the more than 200 people who came to a book store in Huntington to meet Barber and get him to sign his new book, “Tiki: My Life and the Game Beyond.” When asked to elaborate, Dwzia said “Great, awesome, amazing.”

Barber began at 7 p.m. signing books and greeting fans, many of them youngsters wearing football jerseys with his number, 21. By 8:30 the line still stretched through the store, The Book Revue, and down New York Avenue to Main Street.

no self respecting giants fan should go to meet tiki barber. he has sold his soul to the media and is taking it out on the giants. he needs to zip it unless he has something constructive to say.
