Capacity crowds will be a thing again at Ford Field this fall.
The latest rollback of COVID-19 restrictions in Michigan, announced last week by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, mean the Detroit Lions will not have limits on crowd size for home games in 2021.
Whitmer's latest plan called for indoor capacity limits to increase to 50% on June 1. Previously, there was a 20% capacity limit for large outdoor. At the start of the pandemic, indoor venues were limited to 300 people.
Per a May 20 press release, "the state will no longer limit capacity at indoor or outdoor gatherings" beginning July 1.
