Holloway had a home in Stephentown, New York for over 30 years, while living at his Florida residence in Tampa. While he was in Tampa on August 31, 2013, 500 + local high school students broke into his New York house and caused damage that Holloway says exceeds $20,000 while throwing a party. In response, Holloway set up a website, www.helpmesave300.com, to reach out to those who caused the damage in a positive way; instead, he received threats from their parents. Six people were arrested September 26, 2013 in connection with the partygoers who trashed the home.

In October 2013, the Holloway home sold at foreclosure auction to the Berkshire Bank, which purchased it for $400,000. It was the sole bidder on the property.

Brian Holloway went to play left offensive tackle with the Los Angeles Raiders in 1987 and 1988 after being traded to the Raiders on September 2 1987 in exchange for the Raiders' fifth-round selection in the 1988 NFL Draft.

After beating the New York Jets in a wild-card game of the 1985-86 NFL playoffs, the Patriots beat the Los Angeles Raiders on the road in the divisional round with a strong running game, amassing 156 yards, 104 by running back Craig James behind Holloway and Hannah. The line then destroyed the Miami Dolphins' run defense on the road by accumulating 255 yards, 105 of them by James, winning the AFC title. However, they could not run over the legendary Chicago Bears defense of 1985 in Super Bowl XX, Holloway having a hard time with the formidably swift right defensive end Richard Dent, who would be named Most Valuable Player of the game.
