Make Faygo The Official Drink of Michigan

The Issue

Once we found out that Michigan doesn't have an official state drink, we at Big Jim's House on 94.7 WCSX, Big Jim and Ryan have decided it's time and Faygo is the choice! After a few debates we and the listeners have decided that Faygo should be considered the states official drink! We need your help to make this right and give Faygo the Michigan fame and respect they deserve!

Faygo is a soft drink brand that was founded in Detroit, Michigan in 1907. The brand was established by two immigrant brothers from Russia, Ben and Perry Feigenson, who originally sold the drinks in glass bottles. Over the years, Faygo expanded its product line and distribution, and today it is sold in many states throughout the United States and Canada.

Faygo is known for its unique flavor combinations and its affordability, which made it popular among working-class families in Detroit and other urban areas.

Today, Faygo is a staple of the Detroit area and has a strong following among fans of the brand and the hip-hop community. It is still owned and operated by the Feigenson family, and is known for its commitment to using high-quality ingredients and producing a wide range of delicious and unique flavors.
