A few times every year lots of Michigan people fall for the latest "Disney is coming" hoax.

At this point in the rumor mill... Lapeer, Detroit, Grand Rapids and Escanaba should each have a park.

Disney Coming to Michigan Story

There's a "fan website," that looks like a SPAM generator, called Disney Dining.

Their most recent headline says, "Disney Finds New Home Located in Michigan." Rather than read the story, people have been sharing it all over social media.

There isn't a single sentence or related link within the article that states Disney is coming to Michigan. (Frustrated, sarcastic font -- So, why not share the story anyway?!)

Disney is NOT coming to Michigan.

What's more damning... if folks had read the article, they'd see fans of Disney's "Tomorrow Land" are comparing its disrepair to Detroit (and not in "cool renaissance" way).

Besides the lack of truth in the headline and "rumor story," consider how that would work, or not, for Disney.

Unless a whole theme park was created under a dome, there's no way they'd be profitable year 'round.

Winter would be brutal for theme park tourism and any ride/attraction based outdoors.

Abandoned Detroit Pharmacy Transformed Into Gorgeous 4,500 Sq. Ft. Home

On the outside, this brick building looks like any other business you might find in the Motor City.

But on the inside, this commercial building that was once home to a pharmacy and then a gym has been transformed into a spacious single-family home that's overflowing with character.
