Don’t be scared if you see a bunch of people wearing blue ski masks at Ford Field on Sunday during the Lions home opener.
C.J. Gardner-Johnson, the Lions hard-hitting and trash-talking safety, took to social media to ask all Lions fans coming to the team’s home opener against the Seattle Seahawks to show up with blue ski masks on to show the culture in Detroit has changed.
“You’re going to see on Sunday, blue ski masks everywhere,” Gardner-Johnson told reporters Tuesday:
Gardner-Johnson also tweeted this:
CJGJ wore a blue ski mask in the locker room following the Lions’ impressive win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1, declaring “it’s not the same Detroit” on Instagram live.
Head coach Dan Campbell said he expects a raucous atmosphere in Ford Field and now many of the screaming fans could be rocking blue balaclavas thanks to Gardner-Johnson.
Fun times in the Motor City.
