GP1 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 A little slow right now on the board. Let's have some fun. One of my favorite memories of living in NE Ohio was making fun of Barberton. Bring out your best Barberton joke(s). Here is mine for the day: Barberton...Where baby strollers are high school graduation gifts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zipmeister Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 My dad taught at Barberton High for years, and he loved it, but he always used to say, "Barberton, where the kids are raised on cigarettes and switchblades." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip-zip Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Is "Barbertucky" still what everyone calls that city? Or, has something else become more common? Honestly though, Barberton is not the old Barberton. Many of the people are the same, but they've invested a lot of money into their schools, and build several new buildings. They've also torn down some old factory buildings, and have been converting others to new uses. After decades of decay, they are really doing some great things over there.
