The people
"Oh, you people outside my window! Why won't you talk to me, people? You are the best thing in Ann Arbor, don't you want to be my friend?"

Best Place for People Watching:
The Diag
Yep, my mama always told me, "go where there are a bunch of buildings and sidewalks and shaded areas for people to sit and that's where you'll find people to look at." Mama was always thinking of clever things like that.
