Wait, what?
Its true. If you check out Have a Nice Day, it tells a story during his early career about how a promoter was talking with him about his Cactus Jack gimmick. He asks Foley where he's from, and he responds with Bloomington. Promoter says that the home town won't work kayfabe wise so they bill him from Truth or Consequences.
Not that it has perfect credibility, but Wikipedia has Bloomington listed as well.
I remember him saying that in Have a Nice Day....Didnt he just stammer a town because the ring announcer asked where Cactus Jack would be from?
If someone can find some evidence that disproves it, I certainly won't object, but I could have sworn (from sources years ago I've since forgotten) that he was indeed from Bloomington.
Unless we are talking about the Cactus character here, but Foley is from Long Island. I remember reading how his father was a hometown legend of sorts at his school in LI. I KNOW he is from Long Island, but he could have been born in Indiana.
