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.
