The Loneliest Lions Fan - 60 Years of a Fans Frustration

Instead of a Detroit Lions fan throwing a book in disgust, he puts his thoughts to paper. Long-time Northville resident, Dennis Merlo, has published "The Loneliest Lions Fan - 60 Years of a Fans Frustration".

At 70 years of age, Dennis is an avid, albeit long-suffering Lions fan. His book takes readers back to the 1950's in Lions history to present day. It reawakens all the crazy memories, plays, players, coaches and pivotal moments of this unique journey. The Loneliest Lions Fans retails for $15.95 and is available to purchase right in Downtown Northville at the Dancing Eye Gallery. It can also be found at retailers online.
