Mine was on Thanksgiving in 1995 against the Vikings at the Silverdome. The Lions won in a shootout 44 - 38 and had to defend a hail Mary on the last play of the game, Herman Moore was on the field for that play.

I’d won the tickets from Ike Griffith’s show on WDFN 1130 am. Known as the Mega Man, there was a section dedicated to him in the end zone complete with black and red poster cards and t-shirts. It was a great game but a nightmare getting home and setting up Thanksgiving dinner so I said I’d never go on Thanksgiving again and I didn’t…until 2016 when I went to Ford Field and saw wait for it…the Lions beat the Vikings, which was another nail biter!

Anyway, what was yours?

    Against the packers, December 4, 1994 at the Silverdome. I was 15. Barry ran for 188yds and we won 34-31. We played the packers 5times that calendar year. A young girl we went with got sick and puked on a lady with a packers jersey on in front of us. Glorious day.
