Best Fad
Worst Fad
Rollerblades
Those of us who had traumatic
roller-skating experiences during
childhood refuse to even discuss
rollerblading.
Best Slang
"Fresh"
"Fresh" won, but at the Daily
we prefer to use the term "first-
year."
Worst Slang
"Dude"
Are the voters making a
linguistic or a political statement?
Best Thing About Ann
Arbor
U-M
Diversity, people, women's
power, and finally, dirt were other
suggestions. (If you know what
dirtless town thatlast vote came
from, let us know.)
Worst Thing About
Ann Arbor
Weather, Corey Dolgon,
parking, protestors, Domino's Pizza,
and "the Galleria shopping thing
from Hell on South University."
[Note: Bucky Farrow received a
vote for both best and worst thing
about Ann Arbor, and thus is
ineligible to win either category. We
can all agree, however, that
although Bucky is something of a
mixed blessing, he (or it) is a force
which we can no longer afford to
ignore.]
Best Parking Place
Nowhere
Drivers would be well-advised to
do as one voter recommends, and
park in Ypsilanti.

Best "Best of Ann
Arbor" Issue
The Michigan Daily
An easy victory, considering that
our only competition was the Ann
Arbor Metro Times. In case you
don't read the Metro Times, which
is very likely, its chief journalistic
achievement is a hot & sleazy
Romance ads section whose phone
number is 96-CLASS. We are not
making this up.
We at Weekend are rather
ticked off, since we've been doing a
"Best of Ann Arbor" issue for nine
years now. They say that imitation
is the sincerest form of flattery, but
we were gratified to see that the
students haven't taken their support
elsewhere, since they
overwhelmingly pronounced our
version the superior one.
We hate to admit it, but some of
the big cheeses at the Metro Times
