From Michael Jordan's 50th birthday celebration at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston to an overflowing Galleria to countless celeb sightings (hint, hint: Beyoncé) to the big game, everyone was in the spirit of the NBA All-Star weekend.

Even this woman.

Yes, it's Mayor Annise Parker, not incognito, but showing her support for James "The Beard" Harden at the basketball game on Sunday at the Toyota Center.

KHOU photographer Jill Courtney spotted the mayor courtside and snapped this pic.

The mayor cheered the players on as West beat East 143-138, with Chris Paul winning MVP honors.
