(Newser) – When the Minnesota Vikings play the New York Giants in Detroit tonight, every seat in the house will be free. The game was relocated to Ford Field, home of the Lions, after the Minnesota Metrodome's roof collapsed under heavy snow. Detroit was chosen partially because Fox Sports was already there for last night's Lions game, the Free Press reports. "It's going to be great," says one Lions season ticket holder. "It's going to be packed."

Fans cheer as the ticket windows open for free tickets for the Minnesota Vikings' Monday night football game against the New York Giants at Ford Field in Detroit on Monday Dec. 13, 2010.
