DETROIT – The Detroit Lions are encouraging all Lions fans to "Wear White Thursday Night" and dress in white merchandise for their Thursday Night Football game presented by University of Michigan Credit Union (UMCU) on December 4 against the Dallas Cowboys (8:15 PM kickoff). The club will also shine a spotlight on their Women in Football platform throughout the day and will feature a special halftime performance by Motown's The Temptations.
Lions Supply at Ford Field is open 10 AM – 4 PM both Monday through Friday and Saturdays before a home game and will have a section of the store dedicated to white Lions merchandise. Fans can also order their white Lions merchandise online by visiting shop.detroitlions.com. Custom Lions vs Cowboys matchup gear will be available leading up to the game.
Additionally, the team will highlight their Women in Football platform presented by UMCU. The Lions created the initiative in 2023 to celebrate the countless ways in which women impact the game of football. The game will feature programming that shows the team's commitment to elevating women as players, coaches and leaders in football, all to demonstrate how critical women are to drive the sport forward. UMCU is proud to support the Women in Football platform and help advance inclusive leadership across sports and our communities.
To add to the Thursday Night Football excitement, there will be a special halftime performance by The Temptations. The Temptations' story is an extraordinary journey from the streets of Detroit to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Motown auditioned and signed the original Temptations in 1961. With their signature dance moves and unmistakable harmonies, they rose to the top of the charts creating an amazing 42 Top Ten Hits with 14 reaching number one. Just a few of their classic hits that transcend all demographics – "My Girl," "Just My Imagination," "Get Ready," "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" and so many more. One of the most iconic, bestselling brands in the world today, the Temptations are working on a new project this year and can be kept up with on Facebook/Instagram/X at @thetemptations or www.temptationsofficial.com.
