Jim - this can be answered many ways...
"Money? Of course I spent money in Michigan. They have things of value, versus Oh*#."
"Money? I was going to spend some but being from Oh*# I didn't know the local currency in Michigan, and the locals speak a different language I think.".
"Money? No, because all my money is held in a trust in a Michigan bank, because they don't trust me - as an Oh*#ian - as having enough smarts to spend it wisely."
I could go on and on...

I was making a Woody Hays joke(the OS fball coach I grew up with). He would not spend his/the team's money in "that state up north" a phrase he's credited with originating.
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Was funny how he made sure to fill up at the border as would not even buy gas here. Kept hoping they would run out on the way home and have to push themselves over to Toledo for a fill up.
