Tony Gonzalez Takes the Plunge…Sort Of
Jun 28th 2007ericjhoroNFL & Football
When Chiefs tight end Tony Gonzalez meets a woman he would like to spend the rest of his life with, he wants to prove it to her—or at least unofficially prove it to her. Next month Gonzalez will hold a “formal commitment ceremony” with girlfriend October Russell. The ceremony will be overseen by Chiefs fullback Tony Richardson.
“We’re not signing any papers,” Gonzalez told her, “but I wanted the world to know that I love her and want to spend my life with her. I did it the best way for me.”
Gonzalez met Russell five years ago at a restaurant owned by Dennis Rodman and they have been dating for the last two years. There’s no word on why Gonzalez is shying away from marriage, but given how the Trent Green era worked out in Kansas City I can understand why he could be afraid of making a lengthy commitment.
