When 24-year-old Patricia Clarke fell pregnant in 1983, she had more than just a feeling that her child was going to be on the large side.
She’d already had one baby, and knew that big babies ran in her family. That said, she could never have expected just how huge the child she was carrying would turn out to be.
Patricia gave birth to Kevin Robert Clark, who epically weighed in at more than 16 pounds. At the time, he was not just the biggest baby ever born at Community Memorial Hospital, but perhaps the largest baby in the state of New Jersey.
He couldn’t fit into a standard sized crib, and his baby clothes were too small for him, but Kevin was – much to the relief of his parents – perfectly healthy.
Naturally, it wasn’t long before his size was noticed. He made headlines across the country, not only inspiring a segment on “Saturday Night Live”, but also getting a mention on “Good Morning America”.

But Kevin wasn’t done stealing the spotlight there. According to the New York Post, by the time he was 12 he stood 5 foot 7. By junior high he was 6 foot 5. From there, he just kept continuing to grow.
“There isn’t a day that goes by when someone doesn’t ask me how tall I am,” Kevin told the Post.
“I like to joke that I’m 5-foot-21. When people ask if I play basketball, I ask them if they play miniature golf.”
Today, Tom is 35-years-old. He’s a former military man who lives with is 6-foot tall wife and their Great Dane.
He’s more than learned to live with the fact he’s bigger than virtually everyone else. In fact, he takes it in his massive stride. These days, Tom is 6 feet 9 inches tall.

It can’t be easy to quite literally be born into the limelight, nor to grow up with people pointing at you and asking questions the majority of the time. That said, Kevin seems to be handling it just fine … we wish him all the best moving forward!

John Rich’s Complete Destruction Of Woke Garth Brooks Was Epic
Garth Brooks and John Rich have been on opposite sides of the cultural spectrum for some time. Brooks is a kumbaya, peace-and-love liberal that is deathIy afraid of offending anyone as it might affect his bottom line. Rich, on the other hand, is an unapologetic patriot, willing to lose fans and money rather than betray his principles.
Ironically, the stances taken have earned Rich fans and likely more money, whiIe Brooks has taken blow after blow for his support of Bud Light and the faux tough talk he engaged in regarding the devastating boycott on the brand and his support for it in his soon to open Lower Broadway bar.
Brooks is regarded as one of the nicer people in country music, but calling Bud Light boycotters ‘a holes’ certainly didn’t endear him to anyone or earn any new fans. Rich, on the other hand, stopped selling the beer as a matter of business. People simply stopped buying it, so he stopped selling it.
Now that the Bud Light controversy Brooks stirred up has finally di-ed down, and the Ieft has turned their attention to Jason Aldean, a video by Brooks and his wife Trisha Yearwood has emerged that is sure to fire people back up and cost Brooks even more fans. In a weird TikTok video, Brooks and Yearwood talk about the w ar in Ukraine. While that isn’t unusual, as Ukraine is a favorite talking point for most liberals, the content of the message is what is surprising. So surprising that John Rich wasted no time in roasting the couple for the message.
Brooks, for some reason wearing a flat-brimmed hat with the stickers still on it, and Yearwood creepily say in unison: We stand with Ukraine. This, of course, is the company line of the leftist, as rich, liberal elites Iove nothing more than a cause that they can get behind where they don’t actually have to do anything.
From there, Yearwood and Brooks implore viewers to send more than “Iove and prayers” and, as Garth says, dig in your pockets.
Of course, the United States government has sent billions in aid aIready, but that doesn’t stop the tone-deaf duo from asking an American people that is already overwhelmingly against any involvement to send their own personal cash.
