    Here are famous people who have come from Bakersfield, California:

    Rick and Casey Mears....Indy racing royalty family. Won several Indy 500 races.

    Rick Mears is the only one that should be considered famous. One of only 3 men to win the Indy 500 four times. Casey is his brother Roger's kid, but neither Roger or Casey have anywhere near the resume of Rick Mears.

    I thought Casey won a major race at one point, no? Indy 500, I thought. I don't know, I don't follow racing, but I certainly have heard his name on like Sportscenter.

    You're also missing the late Frank Gifford, graduate of Bakersfield High School. Also, Brent McClanahan, running back for the Vikes, who now teaches at South Bakersfield High.

    I had his name written down when I looked it up. I must have forgotten to type it.

    Named Bakersfield...or in Bakersfield. Lots of itinerant Mexican farm workers in that area.

    Casey never won the Indy 500. He might have won something in Nascar but I wouldn't know that.

  • Korn is technically from Oildale. I guess it still counts. I actually live in Bakersfield. Colby Lewis from the Rangers is also from here.

    I have actually been to Bakersfield once. I plan to get there again to see the nearby Cesar Chavez National Monument.

    More likely it would be winter. What's it like then? It was fall when I was there the one time.

    It gets to what we consider cold. I like it. Its crazy because Bakersfield will be 60 70 or even 80 and then 30 minutes away you have Tehachapi and itll be snowing there. Haha.
