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?

    1. Lions @ Bills. I was very drunk so the only thing I remember about that game is
    2. The visitor side clearing out so my friend who had season tickets and I went down close to the sideline.
    3. Me shouting encouragment at John Jett and Jason Hanson after Jett shanked a punt and John Jett looking back and doing a “yeah yeah drunky”
    4. Met Crack Man and I swear he either sat in a chili dog or crapped himself. Poor dude. He was awesome, I remember hugging him.
    5. Detroit lost.
