Fans expected to pack downtown for Lions, Tigers games on Sunday; what to know

Sports fans are pumped up for a huge Sunday in Detroit as both the Lions and Tigers look to build on their winning momentum.

But huge crowds downtown are also a preying ground for ticket and parking scammers.

“It’s going to be off the charts,” fan Lana Lafleur said.

The Tigers are facing the Baltimore Orioles at 12:10 p.m. at Comerica Park, with gates opening at 10:30 a.m.

The Lions are hosting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 1 p.m. at Ford Field. Doors open there at 10:30 a.m.

Ilitch Sports + Entertainment issued an important message, calling attention to plan ahead and reserve advanced parking if possible on parkwhiz.com .

“There’s a lot of apps and other things that I usually check into before I come downtown because if you’re coming down for sports games and other things, concerts, parking, there’s plenty of people down here. Parking is a tough deal,” Lafleur said.

Multiple verified parking locations can be reserved in advance including spots at:

  • Trinity Health Garage: 165 Sproat Street
  • Temple West Garage: 123 Temple Street
  • 2501 Cass Avenue
