Detroit Lions Revoke Fan’s Season Tickets After On-Field Altercation with Packers Coach

The decision followed Fahad Yousif’s unsportsmanlike behavior during pregame festivities, including taunts and a throat-slash gesture toward Green Bay players and staff.

  • Fahad Yousif, a Detroit Lions season ticket holder, had his tickets revoked after a verbal altercation with Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur before a December 5 game.
  • Yousif, on the field for a pregame flag ceremony, taunted Packers players and made a throat-slash gesture, escalating tensions with LaFleur.
  • Lions staff removed Yousif from the stadium before halftime, and the team later informed him via email that his season tickets were revoked indefinitely.
  • Yousif expressed regret for his actions, acknowledging he violated the Lions’ code of conduct and stating he has learned his lesson.
  • To regain access to Ford Field, Yousif must complete an online code of conduct course, though his season ticket eligibility remains suspended indefinitely.
