    Point Royale. I think Elie and Horry had both lived there at one point as well.

    Dude. I have almost the same story. I live on the other side of New Territory separated by Grand Parkway
    We decided to bike our way to that subdivision (Point Royal if I recall correctly). We heard rumors that Barkely was giving out candy and lo and behold we finally found his house and the dude was genuine enough to hand out candy.

    I think Barkley is a genuine good dude. It's why I cringe when Shaq tries to one up him with "I got da rings!" whenever they have a heated debate. Shaw is a thinned skinned petty mother ****er .

    Jokes on you. I was a kid so that means I had to go to grade school. Ya, I would take my chances with a Fort Bend ISD education than Houston ISD. Asian parents care about that ****.

    Horry lives out in Katy now. A family friend's son played football with him.

    I like how no one here knows that sugar land is two words... “only the pure fans” know about sugar land, what a joke!

    So you went to private school?

    My dad with his measly engineering salary couldn't afford private school so he did the next best thing, raising me in a outstanding neighborhood with one of the best public school districts in the state .

    Growing up, I lived in Claytons Bend right next to Point Royale in NT. Worked at Randalls and used to sack Barkley's groceries as a teenager. The Halloween Candy was legit at Point Royal, on top of full snickers Barkley used to hand out $10 bills, and everyone in the neighborhood knew it.

    The confimed Rockets at Point Royale were Mad Max, Elie and Barkley. That much I know to be true and you can take to the bank.

    Why would you shout out some random cookie-cutter ass subdivision way out in the f***ing suburbs. If you're being real you shout out the real city neighborhoods inside the loop

    98% of the areas outside of the loop could be transplanted anywhere in the southern US and nobody would know the difference.

    All I knew my whole life is that sugar land is where the Rockets players live, and Charles just confirmed this
