Meet the Fockers on location


During June 2004 I visited Los Angeles with my friend Robin to attend "An Evening with John Kerry & Friends" at the Disney hall. During this time, the filming of "Meet the Fockers" was in production.

We knew one of the locations was at the Queen Anne house at the Los Angeles Arboretum. So we had to take a side trip there. At the time, they were not shooting at that location. So we pretty much had complete access to the area.

We talked to a production assistant who was there. His job was to refill the lake with water. We of course quizzed him about the movie. He mentioned that they filmed a football scene in this one open field. I asked if Barbra played in the game and to my amazement he said yes!

The sign in the photo above makes a brief appearance (about one second) in the movie when the Fleetwood motor vehicle first arrives at the Focker house.
