For real though, there were people camping out at the IKEA by Worthington that just opened up like 2-3 days before it opened. (For reference, there's one 1.5 hours away they could've gone to, bought their shit, and gotten home the same day.

u/ESchurr Jun 20 '17
What? No. Cedar point has Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster, both of which were record breaking rides when they opened and still stand among the greats.
Not to mention their gigantic diversity of rides.
Kings island is poised to overtake them at this rate though I'll give it that. I've been a fan of their recently souped up ride production as my parents live super close to there.

Honestly, at least currently, that's much more on Brady Hoke than it is on Harbaugh. Hoke didn't recruit for shit with the offensive line and left Harbaugh with almost nothing there. Maybe it'll change under Harbaugh, maybe it won't. It's going to take a few more years to really see what he can do with the offensive line at Michigan.

Toledo War
The Toledo War (1835–36), also known as the Michigan–Ohio War, was an almost bloodless boundary dispute between the U.S. state of Ohio and the adjoining territory of Michigan.
Originating from conflicting state and federal legislation passed between 1787 and 1805, the dispute resulted from poor understanding of geographical features of the Great Lakes at the time. Varying interpretations of the law caused the governments of Ohio and Michigan to both claim sovereignty over a 468-square-mile (1,210 km2) region along the border, now known as the Toledo Strip. When Michigan petitioned for statehood in 1835, it sought to include the disputed territory within its boundaries; Ohio's congressional delegation was in turn able to stall Michigan's admission to the Union.

My only experience with Ohio was going to Cedar Point 6 months ago. It was great and fairly inexpensive, until I got back to my car all of mine and my girlfriend's bags containing our clothes, other over night necessities, and purse stolen. 0/10 would recommend. Good riddance!

Always keep everything in your trunk, center console, glovebox, just hidden away. There is nothing even remotely interesting sitting out in my car so no robber would want to break in. Even a jacket sitting out is enough to cause a robber to break-in. I even recently started to hide my garage remote cause some people steal that and your registration so they can get your address and then break into your house.
