Kelly Stafford and Christen Harper share love for Detroit Lions fans

Harper said that before she actually came to Detroit, she had never here a single positive thing about the city, but now that she is there, she loves it.

“I had never heard a single positive thing about Detroit and so I was like really not sure what we were getting ourselves into and then of course you get there and I’m like, ‘This place is amazing,'” Harper said.

“There’s something so special about the people there and they are diehard fans and they just support, support, support,” she said.

Stafford agrees.

“I used to hate that they would come to games and boo and wear bags on their heads … I used to hate that. I miss it. They care,” Stafford said. “The loyalty of Lions fans, the fact that they would even pay to come to some of the games that we had to play in, is pretty unreal.”

Harper noted that one of the differences between fans and Detroit and Los Angeles is that in Los Angeles, fans ask for a photo with Goff, and in Detroit, they just want to talk to him.

“That to me says a lot about the difference,” Harper said.
