Feelin Good - A Special Lions Gift

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, good morning, I mean happy Monday. I'll do my
best at Schmidty and I saw this story go absolutely
everywhere this weekend for good reason. You know, I may
be a Bears fan, but I've got to tell you
there is just something really special about the family feel
of the Lions crew. And this is a really really
cool moment. Her name is Heather, and take yourself back

(00:21):
last weekend to Detroit welcoming Tampa Bay to Ford Field.
She says, this kid walked through our row in a
Pistons jersey. We all joked around in a fun way
about him being at the wrong game, with all of
us laughing, including him. He then admitted he didn't have
a Lions jersey, so he wore that one. I said, well,
who's your favorite Lions player? He said, Gibbs and pointed
at my shirt, which was a giant picture of Jamir

(00:43):
Gibbs's face, because he's my favorite Lions player too. I
looked at my husband. I said, we have to go
buy him a jersey. The unbelievably beautiful moment this husband
wife and her husband walked back to the stands with
a brand new Jamir Gibbs jersey. They just randomly bought

(01:06):
at the field. He said, this is too much. Oh
my gosh, they had no idea. The lady behind them
had been videoing the entire thing, and now it's viral.
I saw it on SportsCenter, ESPN did a story. I
saw it across all the major networks, and this kid
has the biggest grin on his face ever. This woman, Heather,
just said, it's such a cool moment. They're great kids.

(01:28):
They had a blast. What better way to make your
first game at Ford Field as memorable as possible? You
know what, I gotta say. Those are Reliance fans, and
I think that is so dang cool. If you want
