Nothing says Thanksgiving quite like turkey, pumpkin pie and cheering on the Lions. And in 2025, one lucky West Michigan family will get to experience that tradition in person.
Congratulations to Maggie and Dustin Isenhoff and their son Ellis, 8, winners of our Detroit Lions Thanksgiving Day ticket giveaway, sponsored by Southeast Michigan Ford Dealers. The family will be driving in from Middleville to see the Lions take the field at Ford Field.
For Dustin, this is a full-circle moment. As Maggie tells us, “My husband has been a fan since birth (40 years!) through all the ups and downs. He never misses one.” She shares her own shift in fandom too: “I grew up a Packers fan, but the Lions have won me over. It’s all Lions all the time in our house now.”
Ellis has developed his own love for the team. “My son in the last two years has really taken an interest in football,” mom shares. “His favorite player is Amon-Ra St. Brown and he’s hoping to see a touchdown on Thanksgiving.”
The Isenhoffs have hoped to attend a game together for years, and that’s what makes this especially meaningful. “I cannot tell you how excited we are to do this as a family!” Maggie said.
They’re also arriving in perfect team spirit. This Halloween, the family dressed up as defensive end Aidan Hutchinson (dad), Amon-Ra (Ellis) and head coach Dan Campbell (mom) — a preview of just how ready they are for game day.
Thanks to Southeast Michigan Ford Dealers for sponsoring this giveaway and helping make the Isenhoff family’s Thanksgiving one to remember!
