He tied the NFL record with his 11th straight 100 yard game. His performance that day was nominated for an ESPY. Also Turkey Day is a huge tradition with Lions fans and the tailgating was crazy.
I was there too, Fred, along with my family. I used to love Thanksgivings in Detroit. After Barry retired it just wasn't the same, though.
