I’m moving back to Manistee today so I went out one last time. Quite a few of my friends were able to make it out! (Thread follows)

@LebaneseOligark @Tru3Blu3Vic I just checked last night and the statewide average did crack $5 in June 2022

@parkes_c92 @Tru3Blu3Vic It only exceeded 5 at stations that were notoriously known for high prices like Downtown Detroit and DTW Airport This time around theyre definitely higher as theyre basically $5 now

I’ve never seen gas prices at $5 in Michigan.

@FUNFoodBlog Schools run very late in NJ

What's the deal with Six Flags Great Adventure only being open till 7pm on a Thurs/Fri in mid-June?

@RAILMag Doesn’t Tucson already have Amtrak? Phoenix does not.

Which of these places do you think will receive restored, daily passenger rail service first?🛤️🚆 -Asheville -Augusta (GA) -Augusta (ME) -Baton Rouge -Billings -Boulder -Chattanooga -Columbus (OH) -Duluth -Las Vegas -Madison -Scranton -Tucson -Vicksburg -Wichita -Wilmington (NC)

@scoutRyanPRZ @MichFBFrenzy Ludington at Manistee - week 9 this year. Longest running rivalry in the state

Planning a fall schedule.. what rivalry games are must watch games? 🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽🔽

@the_transit_guy And has no plans to add new rail transit, even in long term planning documents

If you’re wondering how inefficient car dependent metros are, Atlanta’s metro area is 60% larger in land area than Tokyo’s but has 35 million fewer people. Since 2000, the metro has grown by 50% and has not added even a single foot in new rail transit.

@TigersJUK Also when he comes back, the Tigers can slot him in between Skubal and Valdez in order to separate them

Hot take: the Justin Verlander injury situation is a good thing. We’re fine with Keider in his spot. We don’t need JV throwing 170 innings at 43 - we need him down the stretch. Let him rest & get healthy & ease him back in for the big time innings in the second half.

@BarstoolUofM The location by Briarwood is remaining open

What the fuck. This sucks.

@thecalibae Hollywood Drift as it has been testing

What opens first ? Hollywood Drift or Montezooma

"Jeopardy!" fans are plenty familiar with Jamie Ding's intelligence, as he's at 25 games and $700K ... with no signs of slowing down. Now, let @Max_DetroitNews fill tell you a whole lot more about Ding's life and upbringing, via his Metro Detroit family: detroitnews.com/story/news/loc…

@SatisfactualSte If Covid never happened, the Florida Splash might have stayed

As he should. It's ridiculous how he got erased from literally everything at the US parks At least one Splash should still exist inside of the US, and//or the Brers should still have representation, especially on merch.

@TaterNuts_ Are most schools in SW Ohio off today?

Hahaha the traffic backed up to get into the parking lot at Kings Island is something serious

@dippindotsleaks Or at Enchanted Parks

Jeffrey Siebert lands job at Indiana Beach operating All American Triple Loop

@tricia7191 @NSmithReports Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City. They’ve never had a varsity sports program AFAIK, but they do have a mascot!

@NSmithReports Who’s this? He’s cute AF

Community colleges day at Michigan Capitol. The yearly moment of zen tweet of the mascots in the Senate gallery..

After a tough @detroitredwings last loss last night, not sure many stayed around for the very end of postgame. It was the last ever for FanDuel/Bally/Fox Sports Detroit. This is long but stellar by Jay Tuohey. The faces. The memories of almost 30 years on the air.

@ryanhammer09 Not allowing parking might be a sneaky budget cut to avoid having to hire more security officers

This is genuinely disgusting & egregious. MetLife stadium that is in the MIDDLE OF NOTHING except for its parking lots (!!!)... FIFA is making it $100 to travel on public transit AND illegal to park at the stadium at all. U.S. & FIFA are ruining the World Cup experience

On tonight’s Jeopardy! … there might have been a first. All three contestants are originally from Michigan.

@A_K_Mandhan Is the entire strait Iranian waters up to the Omani coast? If that is the case, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar should be considered landlocked countries

@Ryab_FGC_ Over Georgia needs this

Looks like the removal of Speedy Gonzolas at Six Flags Magic Mountain has begun after 10 very short years of operation. Makes sense to remove it. SFMM doesn't need 4 kiddie coasters. I'm sure this will pop up somewhere else in the chain.

@StarportStrdust I did one trip to Epic (over two days) and was able to see both shows and ride every open ride except the off the shelf flat ride in Isle of Berk (Stardust was closed both days, then opened unannounced the day after my second day). This was with no Express but with single rider

Epic Universe is such a hit or miss park. I've been 4 times since opening. The first 2 trips were a nightmare with downtime and inclement weather. With express it took 2 days just to do everything we wanted. Meanwhile my trip in October was the best theme park day I ever had.
