Going to the Lions Game

These people live in arguably the worst city in the entire country. It's poor, dirty, and forgotten. Not to mention, this fan base has been on the butt end of jokes for the past 20 years so a lot of them are going relish in being able to talk sh1t to a team in worse shape for the time being, especially if you add alcohol. You're probably going to be in for a long day Sunday but a football game is never worth getting into a tussle about. Just mind your own business and hope the game doesn't get out of hand on the field.

I'll be there too, for what it's worth.

I lived in Michigan for 5 years, about an hour out of Detroit, and it was definitely one of the more depressing places I'd ever been (This was between 2003-2008, arguably the worst years there of the last few decades.)

I'm visiting some family, though, and we'll be attending the game. Not sure exactly where my seats are yet, but I'll be wearing the ol' blue Newton jersey in the midst of a bunch of Lions jerseys.

I'll still out-yell them all.

Detroit = New Orleans + cold.

I'll be there with a couple Lions fans as I'm from Detroit, well not Detroit but the suburbs.

Section 135

I can guarantee that I'll be the only person in the stadium with an authentic Biakabatuka jersey on, so if you see me, say hello.

And a word of advice to those of you who will be there, root for the Panthers all you want, but whatever you do, DO NOT TAUNT THE FANS!!!!!!

I'm serious, if we get a big play, yell and scream, but don't start looking around at the fans with your arms out and goading them, YOU WILL GET SOMETHING THROWN AT YOU!!!!

Now I've only been to I think 2 games at Ford Field, but I remember back at the Silverdome, it was a risk just to wear the opposing teams colors, it's not that bad now, but you can't taunt the fans or someone there is going to start something with you without a doubt.

I'll put it this way, I have a buddy of mine who goes to maybe half the home games every year, so he sees a lot, it took me about 3 months to convince him to go to the game with me because he didn't want to get hit with anything thrown at me.
