I'm thinking of going to the first preseason game against the Browns on Saturday, August 9th, because it's probably my only opportunity to see a game at Ford Field. Is anyone else planning on going?

[Malto Marko]

I do not usually go to preseason games but would love to attend one with you.

Rule #1 don't buy a ticket in advance because there will be plenty available.

Rule #2 Partake in libations before and after the game because the highlight will be attending a game at Ford Field and not what you see on the field.

I'm in.

[LionsFanInJapan]

It's a Saturday night game. Will that make any difference about the tickets, or will it just not matter since it's preseason?

[Malto Marko]

Pre season.

[Sharkbait]

Saw tics for that game for 4 bucks.

I checked the game dates when I was planning the return flight. That game is on Saturday and Tyler and I will be flying back the next Monday. Less than four weeks now!

If you're going to the game, go all in and do the stadium tour.

I highly recommend the tour.

[LionsFanInJapan]

Is that something we can do the same day?

[Malto Marko]

No, LFIJ. You would have to do it when there is no event going on.

Here is the info.
