The Buffalo Bills might be the Detroit Lions’ opponent this week, but the Bills have actually won a game in Ford Field since the last time the Lions had a home game.
The Bills were forced to scramble in Week 11, unable to play in their home stadium as the Buffalo area was slammed with an epic snowstorm. The NFL moved the Bills-Browns game to Detroit. Buffalo won, 31-23.
To show their gratitude for the Lions’ hospitality, the Bills organization made a generous donation to the Lions charity foundation. They also sent the team some Tim Horton’s breakfast as a thankful gesture.
The two teams’ social media accounts had a lot of good-natured fun over the crazy weekend. It’s nice to see the respect and gracious nature from the Bills. Thank you, Buffalo…
But Thursday afternoon, it’s on!
The best hosts for an unexpected home game.
To thank Detroit, we’re donating $20,000 to the @Lions foundation and sent @TimHortonsUS breakfast their way.
