The interior of a Mooby's pop-up.
Our readers must be feeling nostalgic this week. How else to explain our top two headlines: about a forthcoming Detroit pop-up based on the fictional Mooby's fast-food franchise from the cinematic universe of filmmaker Kevin Smith, and the announcement of longtime performer Elton John's final Detroit show?
Of course, our readers are also interested in what's happening now, and perhaps the biggest story in Michigan this week was the surprise drop of pandemic restrictions. And considering it's Pride Month, a story about a new lesbian social event also got a lot of interest.
Here's what you guys clicked on this week:
