Lions will rock the ‘blueberries’ against the Rams

The state of Michigan is one of the world’s leading producers of blueberries. While most are grown in the sandy soil of West Michigan, Detroit will have a pretty impressive crop of “blueberries” on Sunday.

The Lions will rock their all-blue uniforms, which have affectionately become known as the blueberries with fans. The blue jerseys and blue pants with silver trim and solid blue socks have proven to be a good luck charm for the team, too.

Detroit went 5-0 in the regular season wearing those blueberries, averaging 33 points per game in the uniform combination.
