I get upset to this day only being able to go to the store and buying a 6 pack of vernors...not in any vending machines, no 12 packs, no 2 liters...only 6 pack cans. Also Sanders...gotta order it.

My grandma doesnt remember the ice cream man...she remembers the Sanders man.

And its pronounced Saunders not Sanders.

I definitely knew how to drive a boat before I could drive in MI, growing up on the lakes. Awesome reference to the octopi at hockey games, I definitely miss seeing them thrown out on the ice at the Stanley Cup finals in '97.

Oh, oh, gotcha... well, that used to be the saying in Michigan because they sucked for so long... but we still have a ton of diehard Tigers fans in MI that stuck through it anyway. I love going to Tigers games, especially at the new Comerica Park, it's awesome.

Most people, including me, when talking about their favorite team, sometimes refer to it as "we", i.e.:

"We did well in the semi-finals."

"Man, we played a hell of a game today!"

or...

"Can you believe how much we kicked the crap out of vfast's favorite baseball team???"
