Default just some local info..

For those afraid to come to Detroit I just want you to know the museum is in Auburn Hills not Detroit I know whats the difference,well alot I grew up in that area and I can say its not Detroit by a long shot its actually an upscale area of the Metro Detroit area its about a half hour to 45 min north of down town depending on how you drive (half hour for me)

Yeah, for people not experienced with the Michigan geography, a lot of Detroiters are pissed because the "Detroit" Pistons play at the Palace of Auburn Hills. They don't like that the team is so far out of actual Detroit. However, it is still metro Detroit!

Hey, look at the other bright side. Sure, the lions went 0-16, but we also set history!

I always said and still say that they just need to sell the lions to Mike Ilitch. For those who don't know he owns the Red Wings and the Tigers. The Wings are a great team and in the past few years the Tigers have really turned things around too!
