The last time a game was moved (Minny/NY Giants) to Detroit it drew 45,000 of which 30,000 were free tickets given out.

The game drew an announced crowd of 45,910 -- there seemed to be at least 10,000 more people in the 65,000-seat stadium late in the first half -- and some fans made the trek to specifically see Favre.
"I'm devastated," said 20-year-old fan James Burton, who left his home in Ohio at 3 a.m. ET Monday to get one of the 30,000 free tickets that were distributed.
Even though most got in for free, they left disappointed, especially if they were rooting for the Vikings.
