Did You Know A Michigan Man Is Part Of The “Never Miss A Super Bowl Club”?
Growing up in Michigan and being a Detroit Lions fan means you've never seen your team in a Super Bowl.
In true Detroit Lions style, they won four NFL Championship Games between 1935 and 1957, all prior to the Super Bowl era.
Since the 1957 championship, the Detroit Lions have won only a single playoff game, during the 1991 season, and hold the league's longest postseason win drought.
There is a man from Michigan that has been to the Super Bowl. As a matter of fact, he's been to every single one since 1957. His name is Gregory Eaton and he's 82 years young. He's part of a group called the "Never Miss A Super Bowl Club."
