Detroit is not what they told us it is 😂. We had a blast there, top notch. If there is one thing I never knew about Detroit it’s that the people are amazing. Super warm and welcoming, just an overall friendly vibe. I was super impressed with the atmosphere

@@donbur1553 also the way the stadiums are built in to downtown is so great ! It’s like an open sports district. Ford field, Comerica park and LCA all within walking distance of each other. Super cool

Detroit STAYS slept on....unless you go there. Once you do, it's beyond appreciated. The vibes. The energy. The safety. It's all there. Oh yeah, and to all the scared people, it's murder rate is the lowest it's been in like 30 years. People know that the city's coming back & crime is slowing down because of it. It's wonderful.

Ther ain't no Party🎉🎉🎉 like a Detroit Party🎉🎉🎉!!! It was so much fun!!! The 🐐 🐐 🐐 showed up for The Lions!!! The Motor City, where we know music!! 🎶🎶...💙🤍💙🤍💙....

Thank you to everyone who came out from out of state. I hope you had a good time.

I missed out...the first 2 days it reached maximum capacity before I could get there and the last day I came when it closed down. Thank you for showing what it was like inside so I could see, we should make downtown a walking paradise all the time. It seems like people had a blast, I hope it was great, and people return for another visit soon!

Saturday was 80 degrees. ❤

People who haven't been around the city much don't realize just how back from the dead the downtown through midtown areas of the city are. There are still really rough neighborhoods in the residential areas but central areas, and Corktown are very revived. Detroit is quite used to blocking off central areas like this for public use as they don't annually for the Labor Day Detroit Jazz Festival, the world's largest free 4 day jazz fest where hundreds of thousands attend over the holiday.

Downtown detroit has been good since the late 90s. Spent A LOT of my high school years hanging out and partying Downtown. The recession in 08 was a minor setback for 5 to 6 years. That's about it. Downtown has been going strong for over a decade now. This isn't new.

Exactly. Detroit is no worse than any other big city in terms of any problem areas. It's great and there is always plenty of things to do. I never understood all the hate, either.

Very true. Though while I love and prefer Jazz fests over NFL drafts, this draft has already broken attendance records (>700k already) compared to around 300k for the jazz fest, and is showing off the potential of the area as a venue for events and fests like this

@@bingo8789yea I’m still young around 08 downtown had such a dreary feeling. It just feel welcoming now, look great at night

Sooo glad you had a great time. I have lived in Detroit all my life (64 years) and love my city. Yes we have problems but we are resilient! Please come back😊

I have always loved downtown Detroit. Loved walking through the area. So much to see so much to do. And all the diverse food man. Happy to see it is getting nationwide recognizition. The vibe there is just different.

I hate big crowds and I have a bad back for walking and standing. This video is so cool it helps us feel the magnitude without the work!!Appreciate it

I hope this is the first of many drafts in Detroit we broke the attendance record

The parties never stop in Detroit. If you don’t believe me, checkout the Techno festival during the Memorial Day weekend.

Thanks very nice video! Did you also capture it from the perspective once the crowds formed? Or evening/night view?

I didn't, I made it right when they opened the gates on the first day but left before it reached capacity.

What kind of camera do you use?

Glad you captured the essence of Detroit and the draft and of course @bigwilliestylez and @WisemanCass made a cameo in your video!

Wow, you must have gotten there VERY early as there weren't a ton of people and you got all the way to the edge of the draft theater. I went there on Day 3 (Saturday,) got there between 1 and 2 or so. Had an awesome time. Fewer people than the first 2 days, but still TONS of people everywhere. I walk around downtown all the time, highly recommend! Thanks for sharing this great walking glimpse of a slept on location! Also...Go Lions! 💙🤍🦁
