I was one of the lucky ones to go to the Lions Draft Party yesterday and let me tell you that it was an awesome event in my opinion.
Good on the Lions for getting the pics that they wanted.

Can you provide any details? What made it an "awesome event?"

I saw a pic posted to Twitter and it looked like a really good turnout.

Well, I loved that it was a lottery from the season ticket holders, I didn't win but my friend did so he took me, which made it very exclusive.
They had pizza, drinks and salads etc for all of us. It was held in the dressing room at the practice facility and hosted by Guilio and Scott
firstly running us through what they thought were the Lions desired pics, while showing us combine and game footage of each player.
Discussing each pick leading up to each Lions pic and the effects of those on us and other teams. It was just for the first 2 rounds which
was purrfect. Lots of insight, Marco Iannuzzi spoke, Shaq Johnson spoke and so did Neil McEvoy after our #7 pic. One fan was chosen via
issued tickets to go to the Roar Room to announce the #7 pic to the league as well. That about covers it.
