On Thursday afternoon, the city of Windsor, Ontario held a flag-raising ceremony to show its support and solidarity with Detroit Lions fans ahead of the team’s Divisional Round playoff game. Located right across the Detroit River from the home of the Lions, the Canadian city has both social and economic links to Detroit and is home to many fans of the team.
According to the Windsor Star, Ward 3 (downtown) Councillor Renaldo Agostino came up with the idea to hoist a Lions flag outside City Hall and led the ceremony.
