I'm also from SW Michigan (AZO) and never once have I considered it might be called "Cabbage Night" here.

Is this still a thing? Feel like Gen Z is too busy on tik tok and playing fortnight. No signs of TP, silly string, shaving cream etc anywhere in my town

It’s generational, at least in Bergen. My parents grew up in Saddle Brook/River Edge in the 70s and called it Cabbage Night. Growing up in the same area in the early 2000s, most of my friends called it Mischief Night.

We actually saw a couple TP'd houses while out walking the dog last night! Caught some kids in the act actually, and they hid behind some bushes lol.
