[edit] Birth Place

Tank Johnson was born in Gary, Indiana where he spent his first six years; he then moved to Arizona with his parents. His grandparents and several relatives still reside in Gary. This article should be modified to reflect this.

ESPN says he was born in Chandler. Arizona. --ShadowJester07 05:32, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

ABC7 Chicago, and (other Chicago news outlets note this) interviewed his grandparents and relatives in Gary, Indiana on December 20, 2006.The player profile is incorrect, which is not unusual. See, http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=sports&id=4865746&ft=lg

Ah, good eye. Thanks for the correction --ShadowJester07 22:48, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Superbowl or No

Conflicting news reports on his ability to travel to the superbowl. There is this CNN article that says the situation has not yet been decided. Then there is this Chicago Tribune article which says he can go. I think we need more concise evidence before his status can be stated on this article. Also - I am tagging this article with a current event tag for now. --Mattarata 00:03, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Situation is resolved, but I will leave the current event tag for now. --Mattarata 21:46, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
