    Mo on Netflix does a good job with showcasing Houston.

    I think about strip center with various unrelated products/services and people from all over the world hustling their products on street. Mixtapes, fake merch, and papusas all on the same street.

    You're looking for the Port Arthur thread.

    The Astrodome..

    It’s still a disgrace the city hasn’t been able to figure out what to do with it.

    Yeah yeah and Jimmy Butler is Tomball

    Houston definitely has refinery fires, Bun lives here, Pimp lived here, and UGK is synonymous with Houston rap.

    If I say Hakeem is Houston culture, I don't need to corrected with "aktually Nigeria" lol

    That dude had a car empire on the West Coast. I think I was watching White Men Can't Jump when I realized how big he really was. One of his commercials was playing on the tv in one of the scenes. At least I think it was White Men Can't Jump ...

    I saw medical center and definitely agree, also specifically MD Anderson. Not sure if I missed, thread has a lot of things covered.
