Just sayin' that those of us who live right at the Mackinac Bridge don't call it the "Big Mac". Probably have to go to McDonalds for that. We just call it "the Bridge" around here at thr Straits (of Mackinac). 2600:1007:B02C:B200:0:2D:ED12:3501 (talk) 15:56, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The world is bigger than the Mackinac Straits. A quick google search reveals dozens of listings including "Big Mac" - even on mackinac.com - the official website of Mackinac Island. I can tell you that in the western UP, WI, IL, IN and OH - it is known and mentioned by numerous names, including Big Mac. --Picard's Facepalm • ^{Made It So} _Engage! • 17:19, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
