Ford Field is a domed
American football stadium located in
Downtown Detroit . It primarily serves as the home of the
Detroit Lions of the
National Football League (NFL), the
Michigan Panthers of the
United Football League (UFL), the
Mid-American Conference championship game, and the annual
Quick Lane Bowl college football
bowl game , state championship football games for the
MHSAA , the MHSAA State Wrestling Championships, and the
MCBA Marching Band State Finals, among other events. The regular seating capacity is approximately 65,000, though it is expandable up to 70,000 for football and 80,000 for basketball.
The
naming rights were purchased by the
Ford Motor Company for $40 million over 20 years; the
Ford family holds a
controlling interest in the company, and they have controlled ownership of the Lions franchise since 1963.
History
Planning and construction
In 1975, the Lions moved to the
Pontiac Silverdome after playing at
Tiger Stadium from 1938 to 1939 and 1941 to 1974.
[11]
[12] By the mid-1990s, they began exploring the possibility of returning to the city of Detroit in order to build a new stadium.
[13] On August 20, 1996, the Lions announced their intention to build a new stadium in Downtown Detroit. On November 5, 1996, voters approved a referendum for the stadium.
[1]
[13]
Groundbreaking for the stadium occurred on November 16, 1999, as part of a downtown revitalization plan for the city of Detroit, which included
Comerica Park .
[1]
[14]
Design
The stadium's design incorporates a former
Hudson's warehouse, which was constructed in the 1920s.
[15] The warehouse was converted to office space and currently has
Campbell Ewald and
Bodman as tenants.
[16]
The presence of the warehouse allows for a seating arrangement that is unique among professional American football stadiums. The majority of suites are located in the warehouse along the stadium's southern sideline, as are the lounges that serve the premium club seats on that side of the field.
[1]
[15] The bulk of the grandstand seats are located along the northern sideline and both end-lines, with gaps in the stadium's upper half at the southwest and southeast corners. The upper deck on the stadium's northern sideline also contains one level of suites and a smaller section of club seating. A similar design was implemented at the renovated
Soldier Field , albeit with the use of a new structure (as opposed to an existing building) to house four levels of suites.
[15]
Unlike most prior domed stadiums, Ford Field allows a large amount of natural light to reach the field, thanks to immense skylights and large glass windows at the open corners.
[17] The windows along the ceiling are frosted to mimic the automotive factories that are prevalent in Metro Detroit. The south entrance provides the seating bowl and concourse with sunlight year-round and also offers fans a view of downtown Detroit.
[13]
[18] To prevent the stadium from becoming an overly imposing presence in the Detroit skyline, the playing field is 45 feet (14 m) below street level, similar to the design at adjacent Comerica Park.
[13]
[19]
Ford Field is one of the few venues in the NFL that has end zones in the east and the west. There is no NFL rule for field construction in roofed venues regarding sunlight distracting players on the field.
[20] The east–west end zone design accommodated the Hudson warehouse location. The natural light is not a distraction to the players in a day game, because the light only reaches as far as the sidelines, leaving the field still properly lit with the combination of artificial stadium lighting and sunlight.
In 2017, Ford Field underwent its first major renovation. The $100 million renovation included new video boards, a new sound system, updated suites, and the renovation of multiple restaurants, clubs, and bars on the property.
[7]
Major events
Ford Field hosted
Super Bowl XL on February 5, 2006, as the
Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the
Seattle Seahawks , 21–10 to win their fifth
Super Bowl championship in front of 68,206 in attendance. It also marked the final game in the 13-year career for Steelers
running back , and Detroit native,
Jerome Bettis .
[21]
[22]
The stadium was home to the
Little Caesars Pizza Bowl sponsored by Detroit-based
Little Caesars (previously known as the Motor City Bowl and jointly sponsored by the
Big Three automakers headquartered in Detroit –
Chrysler , Ford, and
General Motors ) from 2002 until 2013. It featured a top
Mid-American Conference team and a
Big Ten Conference team.
[23] The Little Caesars Pizza Bowl was replaced by the
Quick Lane Bowl , featuring teams from the Big Ten Conference and
Atlantic Coast Conference , and backed by the Lions and Ford.
[24] It has also hosted the annual
MAC Football Championship Game since 2004.
[25]
Ford Field has been the site of several neutral site regular season college football games, including
Western Michigan vs.
Illinois in 2008 and
Michigan State vs.
Florida Atlantic in 2010.
[26]
[27]
Central Michigan was set to play Western Michigan at Ford Field on October 17, 2020, before the football season for the conference were cancelled due to the
COVID-19 pandemic .
[28]
Penn State and
Michigan State played a neutral field regular season game on November 24, 2023, a
Black Friday game televised by
NBC in primetime.
[29] Penn State won the game 42–0.
[30]
On December 13, 2010, the
Minnesota Vikings played a home game at Ford Field against the
New York Giants after the
Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome 's inflatable roof collapsed due to a rip in the roofing material caused by heavy snow accumulation.
[31]
[32]
[33] The roof failure forced the already postponed game to be moved elsewhere, and after deliberations, the NFL chose Ford Field.
[31] It was the first ever regular season Monday night game played at Ford Field, and one of the few instances where a team played an unofficial home game at another (rival) team's home field.
[34] The Lions hosted their first ever
Monday Night Football game in Ford Field on October 10, 2011, against the
Chicago Bears .
[35]
A
Buffalo Bills home game against the
New York Jets was played at Ford Field on November 24, 2014, after
a major lake effect snowstorm hit western New York, causing the game to be moved from
Ralph Wilson Stadium .
[36] The Bills won the game 38–3.
[37]
[38] A similar scenario also took place on November 20, 2022, when the Bills' home game against the
Cleveland Browns was also moved to Ford Field.
[39] The Bills won the game 31–23.
[40]
The Lions hosted their first playoff game at Ford Field against the
Los Angeles Rams on January 14, 2024.
[41] The Lions won the game 24–23.
[42] The Lions hosted their second playoff game at Ford Field against the
Tampa Bay Buccaneers on January 21, 2024. The Lions won the game 31–23.
[43]
[44]
Basketball
Ford Field is transformed into a basketball arena in preparation for the
2008 Midwest Regional Finals .
On December 13, 2003, Ford Field hosted the then largest crowd ever to attend a basketball game, as 78,129 people packed the stadium for the
Basketbowl , where the
Kentucky Wildcats defeated the
Michigan State Spartans , 79–74.
[45]
[46]
The
University of Detroit Mercy and Ford Field hosted the
2008 NCAA basketball tournament regional semifinal and final games (March 28 and 30).
[47] Ford Field was the site of the
2009 Final Four (April 4 and 6).
[48] For the 2008 NCAA basketball tournament, the court was placed in the center of the football field rather than in an end of the stadium. This was the first time this configuration was used for NCAA Tournament play with the new 70,000-seat capacity rule in effect.
[49] Ford Field will host the Final Four again in 2027 (April 3 and 5).
[50]
College hockey
The
2010 Frozen Four was held on April 8 and 10 with
Boston College defeating
Wisconsin to win the championship. This has been the only time NCAA hockey has used a football stadium for the championship (inspired in part by their
college basketball counterparts ) and resulted in the largest attendance (37,592) at a Frozen Four event.
[51]
High school competitions
Ford Field has hosted the
MHSAA football state championships since 2005. It also hosted the MHSAA individual wrestling state finals in 2018.
[52]
The stadium also hosts the
MCBA finals, where Michigan high school marching bands compete to be the best in the state.
[53]
Soccer
Ford Field hosted two group stage matches of the
2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup soccer tournament on June 7, 2011.
[54]
Panama played
Guadeloupe in the first match, while the
United States played
Canada in the second match.
[55]
[56]
In 2016,
Dan Gilbert and
Tom Gores announced a bid for a
Major League Soccer expansion franchise , first looking at building a new open-air stadium in downtown Detroit, then focusing on playing at Ford Field, which would be retrofitted with a retractable roof. However, in 2018, Gilbert and Gores and the Ford family would "not move forward with this proposed retrofit, because the risks that would inhere to such an undertaking would substantially outweigh the rewards".
[57]
Other competitions
The
Professional Bull Riders brought their
Built Ford Tough Series tour to Ford Field for the first time ever on March 10, 2012.
[58] Ford Field is the second Detroit area venue the BFTS has visited; they had visited
