Flint has supplied the world with a lot of talent over the years!

From the original Bozo the Clown to the most decorated enlisted man in United States Air Force history, Flint has produced some pretty amazing people. Sports, military, music, entertainment, and more.

We all know there can be a lot of negativity when it comes to Flint, but there is always a bright side to every story. Just look at the talent that has come out of the city. I learned a lot while doing research for this list. I've seen the Rocky movies so many times in my life, but it wasn't until now that I found a small little Flint tie. It is also pretty awesome that Flint is home to the most decorated enlisted man in USAF history. Chief Master Sergeant Duane D. Hackney is someone the whole city can be proud of.

At one time, this mansion was known as the Kmart Mansion because it was owned by the CEO of Kmart before it was purchased by Eminem in 2003. The rapper lived in this house in Oakland County as recently as 2017 and has since purchased another beautiful home in Clinton Township.

The furniture inside the 17,500 sq. foot crib isn't Eminem's, but the outside pictures are reported to be older photos, so yes, we are led to believe the cars did belong to Mr. Mathers.
