...thousands of the school's fans would have flown to Detroit to spend money. All of that cash is a windfall to the struggling state - without the Final Four, none of those Californians and UCLA fans throughout the nation were heading to Michigan to hang out for the weekend (OK, a handful might have family or some other reason to make the trip).

Well, not really. But Somerville recently purchased 50 BigBelly cans of the Wall-E sort. You know, the kind that squishes incoming trash in cute little cubes, emits aww-inducing mechanical noises, and...well, ok, they're not that adorable.  They just text message the waste management people when they're full of crap...
