Jimmie Reese, Babe Ruth's roomie on the NY Yankees, said he only roomed with Babe's luggage.
Babe was a notorious partier and a shagger of women according to all accounts in many biographies on Ruth that I have read.
FWIW, I certainly wouldn't use geography as a barometer of authenticity in this argument. Just my 2 cents.

I'll leave the authenticity question to folks on this board that are way more familiar with his sig than me.

Carry on my wayward sons....
