The Detroit Lions defeated the Minnesota Vikings 30-24 on Sunday to create a once-in-a-lifetime moment. With two games remaining in the season, Detroit improved to 11-4 and earned their first division title in 30 years.
The task is not yet over, but it does bring to an end one of the longest droughts in club history. For the first time in history, Ford Field will host a playoff game.
Of course, Lions players were ecstatic in the locker room, and thankfully, many of them went live on Instagram to share their joy with the world. The Lions danced and chanted to Bankroll Fresh’s “Take Over Your Trap,” as they have for the past two years following major road victory, while wearing their “It’s a lock” NFC North champion shirts.
Here’s some clips of their celebration:
Sorry, that last one was Craig Reynolds.
