(CBS DETROIT) - Detroit Lions fans are still riding high from Sunday night's big win, when the Lions beat the Minnesota Vikings, 30-24. The Lions are now playing for their first division title in 30 years.

Fans didn't want to miss a second of the game. Even Christmas Eve mass couldn't get in the way of some fans.

Leslie Zazula captured the video of Lions fans sneaking a peek at the game during church, hiding their phones behind the pews.
