Barry is the nicest guy. I met him during spring training in 1986 at St. Petersburg. He made sure he waited to sign an autograph for everyone and take some photo's as well. I still have that photo!

[@littlestevey4172]

I talked to Barry online a few times. Probably one of the nicest guys I have ever talked to. I would love to meet him someday.
