Kickin' it over the holidays: Barth family follows its kickers

Posted Dec 24, 2009
Connor Barth kicks field goals for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Casey Barth kicks them for the North Carolina Tar Heels. And that's why Tom and Sue Barth are making this Christmas a moveable feast. They will spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in Charlotte, where North Carolina will play Pittsburgh on Saturday in the Meineke Car Care Bowl. Then, for Tom, it is off to New Orleans for Sunday's game between the Saints and Bucs. (USA Today)
