Oh my! Thanks for sharing that Nova5. I wondered what had happened when they announced the game being postponed and moved because of the roof collapsing. Very cool to see it.

You sure it's free or you being sarcastic :neutral:.

The admission is free, however, there has been an overwhelming response and the NFL has cut off handing out of tickets.

Free tickets for the Vikings - Giants game. But apparently the Lions complained and they nixed the giveaway this morning.

Here is the article from espn.com where I got my information.

Where did you read/hear that the Lions complained ? :???:


DETROIT -- The Detroit Lions have stopped distributing free tickets to Monday night's football game between the Minnesota Vikings and the New York Giants.

The team said in a statement Monday there was an "overwhelming response" to tickets for the Vikings' home game that was moved to Monday at Ford Field in Detroit after the Metrodome's inflated roof collapsed under the weight of heavy snow a day earlier.
The Lions said those holding a ticket to the Giants-Vikings game scheduled in Minneapolis will be admitted and given preferred seating in Detroit. Fans with tickets from Sunday's Packers-Lions game in Detroit will be admitted free with no reserved seating.
Ford Field seats 64,500 people.
Shivering fans braving 12-degree temperatures lined up hours before free tickets became available at 9 a.m. at Ford Field.

That is a great deal!

Fans flocked to Ford Field on Monday night after the Lions gave out 30,000 free tickets for a relocated game between the Vikings and Giants.
