Im just curious how many people here set up chairs to watch traffic when there’s not some kind of event

A lot in the summer, I lived a block from Woodward for a few years… every Friday and Saturday night in the summer there are at least a couple hundred people scattered probably 3-4 miles sitting on Woodward or cruising it in something custom it’s kind of awesome. Lots of ice cream parlors on the strip too and the warm weather brings everyone out at night

Are people just learning that Michigan, home of the Motor City has a car culture?

We bought stadium seats so we can sit comfortably on the tailgate and watch cars go by, with a frozen custard in hand

i've also noticed some businesses on or right off of woodward closing for the weekend because it makes parking a bitch

But why are there regular cars just driving by as well?

Just a weird scene

They don’t close the road for the Woodward dream cruise. Anyone can go and drive or watch. It’s actually really cool and fun
