11 Things You Really Hope Santa Brings Michigan For Christmas
By now, you should be well familiar with all the Christmas lists in your family. You’ve probably gotten just about everything checked off your shopping list, too. But do you ever stop and think about what you’d like Santa to bring our great state of Michigan? We gotta say, we have a few ideas that you just might like.

It's been almost 10 years since Michigan got to host a Super Bowl. And a lot has changed since then, especially in Detroit. Isn't it about time we got another crack at it and show the world what we're made of these days?

Winter comes and all the roads open up with crater-sized potholes. And then the rest of the year is spent trying to patch them up. A year without the mess would be great.

If you live or work in a struggling city, chances are good that you might be paying an extra income tax. Property taxes can be astronomical too in places like Detroit. And again, back to those roads, we're asked to pay even more to fix those same roads. Where does it end, Santa?

We think it's a little overdue that the Red Wings take home the glory.

We've got some of the best guilty pleasure cuisine around. Starchy, oily, fatty, and sweet. Why can't we eat it all, without concern over weight gain or diabetes?

Just the right amount of layers to be fashionable, gorgeous fall colors, and oooh, the smell of burning leaves. Can we just push winter back a little bit farther?

Summers in Michigan are magical. What's not magical are the countless mosquitoes who love to turn your skin into a gourmet meal during the hot, muggy months.

Remember the 2014 Rose Bowl when Michigan State beat out Stanford? Wouldn't it be great to see it happen again, or perhaps see another Michigan team make it?

Those of you who've spent any amount of time in California or a few other southwestern states already know and love the burgers at In-N-Out. While we've got plenty of delicious burgers to choose from, admit it, there's a teeny side of you that would be thrilled to see an In-N-Out here in Michigan.

I don't know about you, but being able to walk around practically without a coat has felt kinda cool.

As refreshing and unusually warm this winter been so far, you gotta admit, it just doesn't feel quite like the Christmas season without a blanket of snow on the ground.
Interesting about these things, is that we’ve been privileged to see many of them come to fruition in our lifetimes. It’s got us thinking that we’re already pretty blessed to call Michigan home. Tell us though, what would you vote for to be on Michigan’s list to Santa?
