Their names just sound cool together, you know? Tiki and CC.
Former Giants great Tiki Barber and ex-Yankee ace CC Sabathia were spotted vacationing in the Bahamas last weekend together with their wives, we hear.
Barber and his wife Traci, and Sabathia and his wife Amber, were seen at the Rosewood Baha Mar resort. They were dining at Café Boulud The Bahamas, opened this month by chef Daniel Boulud. Also spotted on the beach trip with the pals was p.r. whiz Ron Berkowitz and his wife, Laurie.
Spies said that as soon as Barber landed in the Bahamas, he was recognized by a Bahamian NFL fan at the airport, even with his mask on. “The guy impressively knew him from the bridge of his nose to his eyes,” said a witness.
The gobsmacked fan was also overheard talking to Tiki about his brother, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers star Ronde Barber.
As part of its safety protocols during the pandemic, the reopened Baha Mar is offering guests courtesy private jet service back to the States — or a complimentary 14-day stay — if they test positive for COVID-19 prior to departure, so they’re not stranded in paradise.
The resort is where Drake was recently seen gambling in the casino with fellow rappers Meek Mill and Lil Baby. There was also buzz at the time that Drake and Meek were filming a new video in the Bahamas. Drake and Meek were once bitter rap rivals — but they buried the hatchet and collaborated on the track, “Going Bad,” in 2018.
