Just wanted to know.

Patrick Swayze is from the area, I was told at one time his mother raised horses in the Spring area.

Larry Dierker goes to my parent's church in NW Houston. He is probably not the type of celebrity that you are talking about.

I know it isn't the Houston area, but they just showed where my girlfriend is from on Trading Spaces Inside out special. One of the designers is from her home town south of Waco.

Hakeem Olajawon used to live in my neighborhood back in the day. I think he moved to Clear Lake with all the other sports folks.

Patrick Swayze's mother owns a dance studio in Houston...I don't remember the name of it, but I remember it's 2 names, and the second one is Jo. That really isn't much help though.

Lyle Lovett is from Tomball.

Actually, Lyle grew up in Klein.

lyle is my second cousin (nothing to be proud of i know, but still...)

kubiak, was that northgate/olde oaks?

George Foreman lives in Kingwood.

I live in northern Houston. I had my picture in the battalion once, so I am famous.

The estate of Anna Nicole Smith's late sugar daddy, and now presumably hers, is on Cypress-Rosehill Rd, half way between FM 2920 & SH 290.

Oh, and A.J. Foyt's estate is in the Rosehill area as well, as is Lee Greenwood's (or at least it was a few years ago).

stevo - I dunno if its the same one he was talking about, but I know Hakeem did have a house in Northgate....had 'AO' on the gates to the driveway.

Jeff Maggert (pro golfer) lives in The Woodlands.

-Nick-

Destiny's Child had/has a house on Lake Woodlands. Don't know if they still live there since Beyonce is so huge.

Doug Drabek lived there as well. Scarface and (at least) one other rapper live/lived there as well.

Funny unrelated note: my in-laws live in the Dominion in SA and run into Ann Davis (Alice from The Brady Bunch) from time to time.

hakeem lives in sugar land, that is where most of the athletes live, oh yeah, and beyonce and kelly from destiny's child.

scarface lives in the lakes of eldridge.

celebrities that i know of on the north side: lyle lovett, craig biggio, doug drabek, steve elkington, k.j. choi, (not sure if you consider some of these guys celebrities???)

i'm assure a few others will come to me as the day goes on.

Sportsfreak- Shaq also has a house out in Sugar Land.

And Mr.- Marshall's estate was sold and developed. It is now the Gleannloch Farms development off of Spring-Cypress between 249 and 45.




You know me, gotta roam. Gotta bird-dog. Gotta cross females and fences, and if you'd all just come along you'd see...

law - yeah, that house is where his ex-wife (and i believe one of his sons) lives

as far as sugar land goes, the list goes on and on for athletes

Cuttino Mobley (maybe this has changed for hi recently..) and Nick van Exel have houses right next door to each other in the Royal Oaks subdivision in W. Houston, on Westheimer just outside the beltway. Their houses overlook the 18th green on the golfcourse.

agswin - i believe freddy couples has a house there as well, that is his golf course

Here's What I Know:
The Woodlands
1. Doug Drabek
2. Jeff Maggert
3. Victoria Silvestedt (Playmate . . married to Chris Wragge the sportscaster)
4. Destiny's Child . . I guess I just learned that.
5. Matt Bulllard ( he might have moved by now ?)
6. Ken Oberkfell (former MLB)
Klein
1. Lyle Lovett
2. Jesse Barfield (former MLB)
Tomball
1. Charlie Hayes (Former MLB player)

That's about all I can think of right now.

Stevo, yup, its that area.

I'm not sure if he is still there now, but Jesse Barfield lives in Old Oaks. I think his son played baseball at Westfield.

Mattress Mack lives in Northgate also, just in case anyone cares. Gallery furniture signs are all over my old high school.

How did Chriss Wragge get with Victoria..she is smoking hot.

I hit one of George Strait's houses with a golf ball while playing the Dominion (Aunt and Uncle live there) prior to his building his massive adobe house on top of one of the hills.

There are some RICH people that live out in the Dominion. Have you been by David Robinson's house at 1 Admiral Way? It's just rediculous how big it is.

Baby Barfield played at Klein.

Biggio lives in West U.

Bagwell lived in Sugar Land when I was in high school across the street from one of my friends. It was always a great afternoon when we could make a Shawn Bagwell siting. That was one smoking hot woman.

Warren Moon and and Bucky both live in Missouri City (Lake Olympia),or used to at least. If we would have bought the house in Lake Olympia that we were looking at buying, Bucky Richardson would have moved in next door about 9 months later. Instead my folks' bought a different house and I got some weird family with 14 kids.

Roger Clemens used to live in Katy. Im not sure if he still lives over there!

Clemens lives in Memorial.

kubiak, you graduate from westfield in 99? i was class of 96, my bro was class of 00, you still in BCS? josh barfield went to klein, he is playing AAA ball somewhere,

I graduated from Westfield in '99 and i think my sister graduated from WHS in '96.

WESTFIELD! GET KRUNK FOOL!

WHS started getting pretty ghetto when i graduated. They used say that during basketball games. I dont' think it has gotten much better since your bro left.

What elem and middle school's did you go too?

Hakeem doesn't live in H-Town anymore. He moved back to Africa. Seriously. That wasn't a racist joke or anything. He really did move back to Africa. They talked about it on 610 last week sometime because they were speculating on if he would go to LA to coach with Rudy T. I believe he still has family here though looking after his interests...
