Free tickets for Jets-Bills game in Detroit all gone
All of the free tickets for Monday's New York Jets-Buffalo Bills game at Ford Field in Detroit have been given out, according to the Lions.
The Lions announced Saturday that all of the free tickets being given out online for the game were distributed, and that an additional 500 tickets would be given out at the Ford Field box office on Sunday morning with a two-tickets per person limit.
ESPN's Mike Rodak reported Sunday that 10 minutes after the box office opened, fans were being told the tickets were all gone. The team said the ticket line, which was originally scheduled to be open until 3 p.m., had been cut off due to limited availability.

The game was moved to Monday in Detroit because of severe snowstorms in the Buffalo region, including as much as seven feet in some areas, according to reports.
The game, scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, will be televised by CBS in the Buffalo and New York City markets and broadcast live through DirecTV's NFL Sunday Ticket.
