Advice for the Lions! GET RID OF THE “3” SIGNS! The purpose of 3rd down is to make as much noise as possible, not hold a sign and obstruct everyone’s view! If someone doesn’t know when it’s 3rd or 4th down, then a sign will not help them either.
This is the stupidest thing any team has ever done for a home game!!! Clapping and shouting/whistling is louder and more effective than a stupid sign!!!
I’ve even banged my wedding band on the metal railing last couple times i went!!!
LMAO, that came out wrong…
I was going to say the beer prices.
But in a modern NFL where teams often go for it on 4th downs. The 3rd down sign doesn’t mean much…
Although…
honestly, being loud every down on defense would be nice to see.
vuvuzelas or die!!!
You make a good point. Imagine being vertically challenged and the person in front of you keeps holding up signs. They wouldn’t be able to see anything.
Funny I find the 3rd down signs to be really tacky for some reason also and forced. Like I need to be told what down it is and how important it is? Very campy IMO.
The Refs.
There is only one team in the entire league cheaper than the Lions, and it’s by a whopping $1. Lions are even a buck cheaper than the Falcons, renowned for their cheap concessions.
Dare I ask the price? Haven’t been to a game since Rodgers spanked us on New Years day about 7 or 8 years ago.
Historically, it’s been the Packer fans.
Miami - $5
NYJ/NYG - $5
Lions - $6
Texans - $6
Falcons - $7
Rest - $7 or more
I agree, everybody knows who Jack Fox is now. He is a legend. Use your hands to clap for more noise.
Oh believe me, I wanted to say this after posting the question but I had to make a strong point about those useless signs lol
Another theory on the signs is that they deflect some of the noise away from the opposing team!
Must say
The first time I saw those signs I was like WTF? 
That hasn’t changed
Instead of handing out signs…hand out free hard stale pretzels and have a Kelly Stafford themed game.
Kirk Cousins would be eating pretzels all night
Mine is gonna spark controversy but Forward down the field
Just cringe worthy
Pay the money and give us some Detroit music
Im talking give us Lose Yourself as a intro and then when we score a TD give us till i collapse or something
The fight song is what it is.
Oh it sucks but it is ours.
I must admit I hated it for years but it has grown on me.
This shouldn’t be a controversy. It’s probably the worst fight song of any team at any level of football. There are high schools with better fight songs. It’s honestly embarrassing - like wearing a WCF patch.
