Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come nuch. Yeah, they talk better than they night. These
are the radio blogs on the Fred Show.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
It's like we're running in our diaries, except we say
them a loud We called him blogs. Kaylin, Yes, it's
a big weekend for you. It is, and I know
you're you're on the edge of your seat please.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Ooh yeah, so, dear blog. If you've been listening to
the show for a little while, then you know. I
was raised like twenty minutes from downtown Detroit, so the
burbs near Detroit. I've been in Chicago, gosh, almost ten
years now, but I am a very big Lions fan
for a ton of reasons. I have been going to
games since I couldn't even lift my head up, as
(00:37):
they say, since nineteen ninety one, since the year I
was born. My dad said he used to sneak a
fifth of vodka in my stroller because they wouldn't check
in there, which you know, sounds like.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Something my father would say too. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah, they had a sweet but apparently the booze was
still too expensive, so we were sneaking.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Really glad I had a kid so I could sneak
my vodka.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
In Hey, listen, it's you know, pro tip. I guess
they probably got a little smart on that. But I
have been going since I was little, and I've always
been a fan. If you know football, you know the
Lions have never been to the super Bowl never, not once.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yes, fun fact. So tomorrow, which is wild. Guess they're
playing on a Saturday, Jason, it is confusing. Is a
very important Lions game. And I, as you guys know,
I'm so superstitious that I don't even like to say,
like when Balhamine told me to bet on the and
the Lions, like, I don't want to do that because
I don't want to jinx it. And we were here
last year and I brought my nana's ashes to the
(01:31):
bar because she was the biggest Lions fan I knew,
and I wanted her to experience if we were going
to go to the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
That's a real thing. The urn was at the bar.
The urn attended the game.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
It was at a dive bar.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
People, not a joke like it really happened.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
No, No, people were cheersing her their drinks.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I was holding her. And I can assure you Nana
has better tickets than you do.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Oh yeah, I mean, well, girl, if you do then
make it happen from up there Jesus. So yeah, I'm
just I'm just really nervous, like I don't know how
to act. I don't know how to feel. I don't
want to talk about it, but I will be out
at a little dive bar watching because I could not
afford tickets to the game. So I don't know just
if you could find it in your hearts, even if
you're not a fan for this small little girl, it's
(02:15):
going to.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Start to go fund me. But I don't think we
could have gotten it high enough because I think it
was the most expensive non it was the most expensive
ticket and it was approaching Super Bowl type prices too,
just to go to this game in Detroit. Yeah, thousand
bucks was the average a couple of days ago. I
bet it's gone up.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah, And if you don't want it for me, Dan
Campbell was on the Lions in his NFL career and
they went zero and sixteen. They didn't win a single game.
He's a wonderful guy, the players are amazing. The city
deserves it.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
So yeah, Dan Campbell's what got me few years ago
and in Camblin. But Dan Campbell mostly uh, just watching
the guy cry as he walked through the stadium on
his first day, just because he got the job, and like,
I don't know, I just something about that, like he
loved it so much, Like it means so much to him. Also,
the caffeine consumption is it's otherworldly.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, he's a wonderful man. He shows his emotions. He
and every press conference will not ever blame the team.
He blames himself. His wife Holly every morning, the day
after they win, post victory coffee with Dan and he
goes to Starbucks and they write, I mean, he's just
he's a wonderful person. The team deserves it. So if
you could keep me in your thoughts because I may
have a heart attack.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I think it's gonna be okay. I feel good about it. Well,
yeah said last time, you did say that last year. Okay,
you want to what do you want to say it?
You only say it's gonna be terrible.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
I don't want to do I'm I'm trying to be
positive in twenty twenty five, you know, captain positivity. That's
me in twenty twenty five. Will I can't send you
bad vibes. I have to send you good vibes.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Thank you, Just say, we'll see how it goes. Yeah,
that's probably a much say
