PRIDE OF THE <strong>LIONS</strong><br />
On November 22, 2009, the Lions unveiled the team’s Pride<br />
of the Lions, a permanent stadium display honoring greatest<br />
players in team history during a halftime celebration at Ford<br />
Field against the Cleveland Browns. The team introduced the<br />
12 members of the Pride of the Lions charter class. The Pride<br />
of the Lions is a very visible feature on the old Hudson’s warehouse<br />
of Ford Field (south suite levels) that includes the players’<br />
jersey numbers, name and years played with the Lions.<br />
