Despite fame, Romo not
too good for hometown
By Mac Engel
Tribune News Service
BURLINGTON, Wis. —
The Chamber of Commerce now features a Tony
Romo display.
So does the Burlington
Menswear shop next door.
Down two blocks, Fred’s
Burgers has a shrine for
Romo, and a table with
photos from his athletic days
at Burlington High School.
On the four main roads
leading into this community
of nearly 11,000 are signs
that say this is the hometown of “Tony Romo, NFL
quarterback”.
The high school has a display case for Romo outside
its cafeteria. On page 10 of
the Burlington magazine,
Romo is featured as a local
celebrity.
A little more than eight
years ago, none of this was
here in Burlington, Wis.,
when Tony Romo was
named the starting quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.
A little more than eight
years ago, Romo was
winning so easily and
everything not only looked
possible but imminent.
Despite incredibly bad
odds at making it in the
NFL as an undrafted rookie
free agent, much of what
was projected for Romo all
the way back then actually
has happened.
Some of it has not.
There has been joy, highs,
lows, sadness, injury, marriage, children, fame; when
he growing up here and
aspiring to be the local golf
pro, all of what has happened was implausible. All
of this doesn’t happen to
kids from Burlington.
At the core of his success
remains this place, and these
people.
This quaint and impossibly endearing community of
a little more than 11,000 has
changed since he became
the starting quarterback,
as he has. Their essence
remains a basic decency that
supports, and never forgets,
the other. There is a deep
mutual pride between the
two.
“Tony ... that’s my baby,”
said Mr. Simon Pedone, 74,
owner of Romo’s favorite
pizza place in town, who
has known Tony and his
family for decades.
“Tony’s the same,” said
his former high school
coach, Steve Gerber. “He
really hasn’t changed. He always comes back. He always
includes us.”
Tony Romo hit the big
time, but he never big-times
Burlington.
•••
This town, located 30 miles south
of Milwaukee, still reeks of the same
humility and small-town kindness it
always has.
Despite its location between
two major cities, Chicago and
Milwaukee, the type of growth
that can turn it into a giant suburb
never happened. There is not even a
Starbucks here. There is nary a hint
of pretense about Burlington, which
is its charm.
When Romo walks into Burlington
Menswear, where he had his suit
made for his high school prom, he
always does wearing his normal
unpretentious off-the-field uniform.
“Khaki cargo shorts, T-shirt and a
hat,” said Shelly Leverenz, who has
run this store since Romo was a kid.
“He really is an everyday person.”
“One thing I never thought I
would see is Tony in a suit and
tie like you see him wear for the
interviews after games,” Romo’s
high school basketball coach, Steve
Berezowitz, said.
When Romo hit it big in the fall
of 2006 and the entire 2007, this
community wanted to be above how
much fun being famous can be,
much like Romo himself.
But like any normal human being,
it was too much fun not to revel
in the fame. There was their Tony
being interviewed by Al Michaels,
playing against Brett Favre, dating
Carrie Underwood and even Jessica
Simpson.
“There was a 50th birthday party
for his dad here, and he came back
and he brought Carrie Underwood
with him,” said Romo’s high school
teammate, Steve Tenhagen, who is
now the head football coach at Burlington High School. “That was a big
deal. I think more people were more
excited to see Carrie Underwood
than Tony.”
It was only slightly surreal to see
one of their own all over the place,
from ESPN to NBC to the pages
of US Weekly. It was only slightly
surreal to see their Tony sign a sixyear, $67 million contract in the fall
of 2007. Burlington is not a shanty
town, but that kind of wealth doesn’t
normally reside here.
When Romo returned then, and
now, most of these people are dying
to say hello, get an autograph or
simply to be in the presence of fame.
They also want to leave him alone.
“I think he has signed everything
here now, so no one bothers him any
more,” Gerber said.
Eventually, the interest level was
too big, and his mom and dad moved
from the modest, 1,500-square-foot
home in Burlington a few miles north
to a neighboring community. People
would simply drive by the single
story home to stop, to point, to take
pictures. Tony and his two sisters no
longer lived there, and his parents,
Ramiro and Joan, no longer wanted
the hassle.
