Any way you slice it, Thursday morning's cell phone snapshot begs for playfulness.
While covering the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, Roop Raj was about to cut a cake (visible before our crop) during a live shot outside Iorio’s Gelato on East William Street.
"Caption this!" the Fox 2 Detroit personality invites Twitter and Facebook followers. We replied with three ideas and played it forward at our social media feeds.
"Yeah, that's right, I root for Ohio State. What are you gonna do about it?" responds reader Mark Lantz.
