Tony Soprano’s iconic house is actually real and in West Caldwell, the town right next to Cedar Grove NJ… where Tommy lives with his mother.

This is crazy to me because I also grew up in that area and right by the stadium. The guy is almost exactly a year younger than my little sister.

Most 25 year olds around here still live with their parents. Housing is expensive. Gotta start somewhere. At this point this is normal and expected, and everyone is living at home while they work on breaking into a career somewhere. But this dude is the starting quarterback for the New York Football Giants and he’s “just another guy” living at home like the rest? How is this possible?

He also went to high school right next to my job. Like I can hear their music during football practice at 4. I’m having trouble getting over the fact that he’s so smalltime for such a national spotlight and big role. And he refuses to change which is actually super admirable. A lot of people would let it go to their heads.

Man I hope the kid succeeds because if he’s trash, it will always feel like the equivalent of me and my buddies driving up to the stadium AND THEY JUST LET ONE OF US BE THE QB. I think that thought would break me.

Good luck Tommy DeVito, the local boy! Hope you have a long and successful career.

I saw that his mom still makes his bed. Not a good look for a leadership position.
