When did Michigan become "The Mitten State"? Just can't get myself to say it and I'm sticking with "The Great Lakes State."

Tiger Stadium > Comerica Park
Although technically the current stadium where the Tigers play didn't change names.....I just prefer calling the current location by the old name

Willis Tower will always be the Sears Tower to me. Also, I just learned like a week ago that the Tweeter Center is now the "First Midwest Bank Amphitheater." That seems like a pretty dumb name, so I'll just still with the old one.

Shitload of pro sports stadiums, with Comiskey being the big one.

My parents go to about 15-20 Tigers games a year, and my Mom still calls Comerica "Tiger Stadium."
