Originally Chicago, currently Switzerland after a stint in Argentina.
My wife is Argentinean and my kids were born here which makes them a very mixed up amalgamation of Western European blood, new world familial culture, and local societal expectations to behave more like a robot than a child and never, ever arrive late.
February 11th, 2020 at 2:24 AM ^

Home to the 1959 Little League World Series champions. The only city in the state to be able to make that claim.
Welll, actually, as they only crown one LLWS champion per year, you're right, only one city can make the claim they won it in 1959. (snicker)
February 11th, 2020 at 10:26 PM ^
Thinking Grosse Pointe team made it to the final series recently and came up short. Also not sure of the make up of little league teams today, more regional rosters. Pretty sure Hamtramck roster in 1959 were all local residents.
