Little is known about him; except for he is one of Jaidal’s classmates in Watergate Junior High. Barney is a strong, quiet but very obese teenage boy with a big heart, who bitterly hates to bully others. He is Gina’s childhood friend since preschool, and cares for her a lot, as if she is his younger sister. He has a great ability to play certain sports, like tennis, dodgeball, and baseball, despite his heavy weight. And like Gina, he doesn’t bother himself of being n#1 so much. Barney is mostly being called “BJ” as he is named after his father; however, he is sometimes being name-called “Big Barney” or “Sumo BJ” by Jackie and other mean kids in school because of his enormous size and weight (which he doesn’t like), but does his very best not let those thoughts get to him, as he has a little bit of a short fuse.
