Micheganders will understand

Two guys from Michigan die and wake up in H***. The next day, the devil stops to check on them and sees them dressed in parkas, mittens and bomber hats, warming themselves around the fire. The devil asks them, "What are you doing? Isn't it hot enough for you?"


The two guys reply, "Well, you know, we're from Michigan, the land of ice and snow and cold. We're just happy for a chance to warm up a bit, you know."


The devil decides that these two aren't miserable enough and turns up the heat. The next morning, he stops by again and there they are, still dressed in their parkas, mittens and hats. The devil asks them again, "It's awfully hot down here, can't you guys feel that?"


Again, the guys reply, "Well, like we told you yesterday, we're from Michigan, the land of ice and snow and cold. We're just happy to warm up a little bit, you know."


The devil gets a little steamed up and he decides to fix the two guys. He cranks the heat up as high as it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere. He stops by the room with the two guys from Michigan and finds them in light jackets and hats, grilling sausage and drinking beer. The devil is astonished. "Everyone down here is in abject misery, and you seem to be enjoying yourselves."


The two Michiganders reply, "Well, ya know, we don't get too much warm weather up there in Michigan, we've just got to have a cookout when the weather is this nice."


The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight. Finally, he comes up with an answer. These two love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. He decides to turn all the heat in **** off.


The next morning, the temperature is below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere, the people are shivering so bad, they are unable to wail, moan or gnash their teeth. The devil smiles and heads for the room with the 2 Michiganders. He finds them back in their parkas, mittens and hats. They are jumping up and down and cheering. The devil was dumbfounded. "I don't understand. When I turn the heat up, you're happy. Now it's freezing cold, and you're happy. What is wrong with you two?"


The Michiganders look at the devil in surprise. "Well, don't ya know - if H*** froze over, that must mean that the Lions won the Super Bowl!"

By the way . . . do you know how to keep the Detroit Lions off of your lawn? :confused:

Put up a goal post in your front yard . . . :p

What do the Lions and Billy Graham have in common?

They can both make 70,000 jump up and say Jesus Christ!

What do you call a Lions player with a super bowl ring?

A theif.

Why doesn't Grand Rapids have an NFL team?

Detroit would want one too.

Now that is funny! Gold post in the yard. I lived in Michigan and it rained, or snowed every day for two years except for one! Now not all day, but it stared out with clear blue skies. Then a few puffy harmless white cotton balls. Then the fun moved in and boom! But we were enthralled with the weather man Sunny Elliot! Best ever, and never missed a weather report of his. He was a real treasure to see every day. We also seemed to pick the two worst years to be in the Detroit area for weather. It is a beautiful state with good fishing and great apple orchards.

I remember Sunny . . . Detroit's Channel 4 I think!

We are born and raised Michiganderers . . . transplanted to Colorado 21 years ago this Labor Day!

Here is another one . . .

How can you tell when the Lions are going to run the ball? :confused:

When the running back comes out of the huddle with tears in his eyes . . .
:p

GO BRONCOS! (the Lions are still my #2 team)

Michigan, a State divided since 1934, we Yooper's " Go Packers "
I knew a guy who knew a guy that always carried a Packers mug in his vehicle.... He said it worked great... He just put it on the dash and could park in the handicap spaces......
