Detroit Gets The Destination Nod Over Chicago
DETROIT (WWJ) – Detroit is better than Chicago!!
That’s according to at least one travel writer, who has compiled a list of over-rated destinations and suggested alternatives.
While Michiganders can give you a plethora of choices in the state that are select and unique it’s always nice to get a nob from outsiders.
Among the reasons David Landsel tells travelers to try the Motor City over the Windy City? World-class architecture, a great music scene, and cheaper and better beer.

Windsor, Ontario, the armpit of Canada is vastly superior to Day-twah.
10 Best Cities to go in heavily armed and with body armor. But that also have cheap beer...
I just noticed you suckered me into giving HuffPo a page hit, LOL.
The country's best architecture? Does he mean the bombed out shells of buildings where companies used to have offices, or the blocks of houses that are empty and candidates to be plowed under?
Friendly people? Sure. As long as you give them your wallet, they won't kill you.
In Detroit you can legally return fire.
Sometimes I'm not sure if you're putting us on or not... That's the plus? It's OK to return fire? Good one cripplecreek - I'm on my way...
If everybody keeps leaving Detroit, it’s going to go from Motown to No-Motown.
When I read some of the bullshit I read in some of these threads I have to wonder if FReepers are conservative or not. Lots of outright lying goes on and simply echos around the chamber.
You’re one of the people I respect... but I’m not sure what you’re talking about on this one... Are you talking about Detroit comments on this thread? Or something different? I was just having fun with your comment about being able to return fire... I wasn’t sure if you were kidding about that.
Definitely a shock piece.
Detroit over Chicago
Santa Rosa over San Francisco
Houston over Austin
Utah over Colorado
The writer is focused on food and sex, primarily.
No I’m not kidding. Detroit and all Michigan cities are open carry. I think its a good thing.
It’s a good thing. I’m with you on that...
The "food scene?" Who cares about this, aside from the poofters?
My "food scene" is the supermarket and Mickey D's.
Zimbabwe, South Africa had it all. If I’m not mistaken SA was an 8th global economy just 30 years ago. Now it is all fair and diverse but in a 3rd world.
>>>Windsor, Ontario, the armpit of Canada is vastly superior to Day-twah.<<<
Yep, some ignorant Canadian folks who eventually visits Michigan really thinks US is a kind of Mexico or Zimbabwe. Looking at Detroit is a kind of culture shock for them. They starts telling their friends US is a 3rd world cesspool and Hollywood is all lies:) No kidding.
Yes and open carry includes long guns, concealed excludes them.
