Charlie and Fulton are discussing hockey in the still above as they wait for Goldberg; below is the same spot in 2014. As you can see in the above still, the wall and windows behind Fulton were fake and put there for the production of the film.

If you visit this location just be aware that this is a shady neighborhood. I wouldn't suggest visiting it at night.

As I type this, the home is currently for sale and the owner is asking $850,000 for the property. 90% of the homes in Puckett's former neighborhood are worth half that price.

Yes, Kathy Bates was in "Angus," as you can see from the still above. Behind the marching band, you can see the physical building of the school; same spot below in 2014.

Not much has changed near the football field. Observe the letters in the still above on the track spelling out "OWATONNA." Below you can see the exact same letters are there as of August of 2014.

Saint Agnes School - "Joe Somebody" Filming Location - St. Paul, MN

Saint Agnes School, located at 530 Lafond Avenue in St. Paul, Minnesota, was the location used for the basketball scene in the 2001 film "Joe Somebody." During my visit, this spot was referred to as "the old gym." Above is a still from the film; below is the same spot in August of 2014.

Above is a still from the film, which was a scene between Tim Allen and Julie Bowen. You can see the gym hasn't changed much in the 2014 photo below. The day I was there, they were doing some moving around of equipment due to construction in another part of the school.

The staff at the school told me the walls were painted yellow for the production of "Joe Somebody" and the school decided to keep it after filming was complete. The two logos above the basketball hoop were also put there by the film crew. I must say, this gym did have a certain kind of charm to it.

I'd like to thank the staff at Saint Agnes for sharing their stories from the film with me and letting me take photos of the gym. I really appreciate it!
