Allen Park — The Lions will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles this week on the eve of the fall equinox. Apparently, no one informed Mother Nature. The current forecast indicates temperatures could climb as high as 90 degrees during the game.
That's a far cry from the last time the Lions traveled to Philadelphia, a little more than six years ago. On Dec. 8, a cloudy morning gave way to a big afternoon snowstorm, resulting in one of the most memorable games in recent NFL history.
The News talked to several Lions players about their memories from that day.
