Oakland Deputies Support Lions with Team Caps

Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard has authorized his deputies to wear Detroit Lions caps and beanies as part of their uniforms during the Lions' playoff run. This decision aims to foster camaraderie and community spirit while maintaining professionalism within the Sheriff's Office. The Lions, after a historic 15-2 season, have secured the NFC No. 1 seed following a 31-9 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Bouchard noted the similarities between his team and the Lions, highlighting their shared grit, determination, and ability to overcome challenges. The permission to wear the Lions gear is effective immediately and will continue as long as the Lions remain in the playoffs. This initiative reflects the community's support for the Lions as they aim for their first Super Bowl appearance.
