The Detroit Tigers defeated the Milwaukee Brewers at Comerica Park on Sunday, securing a 10-2 victory. This exciting win was the highlight of the day at the ballpark. However, during a break in the game, the scoreboard operator took a playful jab at a former rival from Wisconsin while showing support for the Detroit Lions.

As part of the in-game entertainment, a trivia question was posted to the fans in attendance, featuring photos of Aaron Rodgers, current New York Jets quarterback and former Green Bay Packer, alongside Lions linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin. The question asked, “Who had the most completions last season?” This light-hearted dig led to laughter and amusement among the fans at Comerica Park.

Rodgers’ injury early in the season with the Jets prevented him from completing any passes, while Reeves-Maybin managed to make a completion on a fake punt play during the Lions’ game against the Dallas Cowboys. Despite the playful ribbing, both players have had their share of successes and challenges throughout their careers.

The history between Rodgers and the Lions, as well as the rivalry between the Packers and Lions, was highlighted by the trivia question on the scoreboard. While Detroit fans enjoy a good-natured jab at their rivals, the players and teams involved have a long-standing competitive relationship that adds excitement to their matchups.

Looking ahead, the Lions and Jets are not scheduled to play each other in the upcoming seasons, with their next matchup set for 2026. However, fan anticipation for potential future meetings is high, as both teams continue to strive for success on the field. In the meantime, the banter and fun trivia questions at the ballpark provide entertainment and camaraderie among fans of all allegiances.
