SEA LIFE marine biologists show off their Detroit Lions team spirit
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (CBS DETROIT) - Two SEA LIFE marine biologists and Detroit Lions fans showed off their team spirit ahead of Sunday's playoff game.
The biologists wore Detroit Lions gear and dove into the aquarium's 120,000-gallon Tropical Ocean Exhibit, a spokesperson said. One diver wore a Lion onesie with a fuzzy mane and ears.
The pair swam for "touchdowns" near the makeshift underwater goal post, the spokesperson said.
According to a spokesperson, the ocean exhibit is home to sharks, stingrays, sea turtles, and more. It holds 120,000 gallons of saltwater that could cover more than a quarter of a football field with one foot of water. Additionally, the seabed is 15 feet below the surface of the water.
The Lions are set to face the Rams on Jan. 14.
