1.) Most people think Tony is Latino. One of his grandmothers was white, and the other heralded from Jamaica. His mother's father was part American Indian and part African-American. His other grandfather was a native of Cape Verdan, located among the Portuguese islands off the African coast.

2.) After finally sticking up for himself to a bully as a child, Tony began sticking up for others who were picked on and defended the "little guy".

3.) Tony has created his own charitable organization, the Tony Gonzalez Foundation (http://tonygonzalezfoundation.shadowbuddies.com/). It focuses on helping medically challenged children through the Shadow Buddies Foundation, and providing support for disadvantaged youth through The Boys and Girls Club. Tony is the only NFL player to have his own Shadow Buddy doll.
