Pure Michigan. What's not to love? The Mitten State is the home to The Motor City and The Mighty Mackinac Bridge. We love our Great Lakes and our Lions. Known for our coney dogs, pasties, Traverse City cherries, and Frankenmuth chicken. You can wash it down with your choice of Faygo or Vernors.

Birthplace of Stevie Wonder, Bob Seger, Kid Rock, Iggy Pop, Lizzo, Glenn Frey, Anthony Kiedis, Jack White, and Jackie Wilson just to name a few.
